Stress is chewing in to me.
I'll state this.
Every time I get stressed out for long periods of time, my stomach becomes unsettled and I constantly get acid reflux. My flatmate for the past several fortnights has stopped wanting to go shopping with me and it's beginning to tear me apart. Without him, I feel like a tourist every time I enter a grocery store because I don't know what we need (a shopping list is useless to us because we always need other stuff that isn't on it).
This afternoon he did it again. He stayed up all morning till daylight showed (like the other fortnights) and when I try to get him up for shopping, he keeps "delaying" it so he can sleep more. This seems to be now getting to be a habit of his and due to this, my patients is running thin enough to stress me out.
I've told him if this keeps up, he'll need to bring home shopping for the next couple of weeks (he already has a bitch session just bringing drinks home) and because he keeps using plastic bags instead of the green-bags (fabric kind that Coles/Woolworths sells), it'll just keep hurting his fingers or break apart due to the weight or some sharp object poking in to the plastic (which has happened several times before).
Honestly, I'm not sure what to do in this situation.
At the moment I'm trying to save cash for a trip to the US, at least to be able to go to a convention but with bills stacking up, saving cash feels so much more painstakingly long. Looks like Anthrocon 2K9 is just out of the books (at least not till next year) so that means I have time to make a fursuit but well.. I'm not sure of what my flatmate will think. *shakes his head*
