try and think about the last time i told you i didn't have money to buy groceries. yeah, it was awhile ago. and since that time, my parents have given me more grocery money AND i have gotten my slc paycheck, which may not be very much but is most definitely enough money to cover at least a few trips to the grocery store. hence, the reason i have since then purchased groceries
also, i always have money somewhere. i am never flat broke because i worked all fucking summer and saved up quite a bit of money. however, when i say "i have no money to buy groceries", i am most usually referring to the fact that i have spent all my monthly allowance from my family that i have set aside for groceries, and don't have money constantly set aside to fund my roommates' parties, especially when i don't know about the party save for some brief reference weeks earlier to your desire to have a party of such theme. i'm not going to want to give you money each time you want to have a party. and i am not trying to say you want to ahve parties too often, because too often would be those 2 times you have wanted to. sure, i was happy to throw in money the first time. i didn't want to have that second party. i did not try to stop you from having this party however, but i did not want to throw down another 30 dollars to buy a bunch of fucking german beer. DON'T WORRY, i didn't iunvite one single person to that party. and the logic of "but you're friends are going to be there regardless". well let's think about that. i bet there are parties almost every night where at least one of my friends is in attendance. does this mean i need to seek the party-thrower out in order to give he/she a little bit of money beceause "hey guys, Billy Joe/Sue is my friend, and i want to support their desire to consume alcoholic beverages"
and by the way: sometimes when i say "well, i barely have enough money for groceries right now", it MAY just mean, "i would rather stay out of debt right now and have money to buy food/cds/entrance into certain events/etc than buy alcohol right now, but for some reason i feel the need to cover that pretty normal desire up occaisionally because when i say that, you guys tend to look at me like i'm some alien, even though THAT IS OKAY TOO. normally i don't like to have to dip into my savings account (something i try not to access too much in order to be abelt o take spontaneous trips such as this one with my friends) for something as insignificant as alcohol or my addiction with going out to eat. but odn't worry, i won't be living with you next yera so hopefully you can find a roommate who will constantly be willing to give you money for parties, because that person is not me.
oh and i knew you had a problem with that so i wish you would have just said something at the time instead of writing snide comments on my livejournal, because normally i would just ignore them but tonight i have a lot of work to do and wanted to procrastinate with this annoyingly long and overdramatic response. (went ahead and saved you the effort of inisting i was being overdramatic. call me a drama queen if you want)
dude, chill. i was fucking kidding. i wish you'd talk to me more instead of this kind of thing. that's what leads to misunderstandings.
1) i don't care if you don't want to support our parties. if you don't want to, i'm not going to make you fund them. i'll start posting reminders to you if and when we ever have another party in order to get your approval/disapproval weeks in advance. and i never said anything about you going to random parties to buy your friends drinks ... um ...
2) i'm prefectly aware that you worked all fucking summer. jesus. congratulations, i'm jealous that you can go on trips to new york and buy yourself and your bff's rewards for your hard work. i'm not being snide or sarcastic when i say that, either. i wish i could do the same.
3) i wish you would talk to me. i don't look at you like an alien. i just want to be friends again.
