Why my housemate is awesome
I have an awesome housemate. Why is she awesome? Because we are able to have conversations like these, without her thinking me certifiably insane*:
After housemate C is recovering from cold/migranes etc:
Me: How are you doing?
C: Alive....I think. I'll know when I go outside.
Me: Does that mean I may have to stake you?
C: If I'm going outside I don't think that will be necessary.
Me: I dunno....you might sparkle.
C: If I sparkle, PLEASE STAKE ME!
Yesterday morning (after I have been watching too much Invader Zim):
[C comes downstairs to the kitchen, where I am making breakfast]
Me (channeling inner Zim): You will OBEY the toast
C: Cassie, is your breakfast talking to you again?
Me (makes sad/scared face): This is the first time....
C: And what is the toast saying to you?
Me: [Makes "overlord fist" gesture]: eaaat meeee!
*or at least, she's polite enough to keep such thoughts to herself.
