I went to bed at midnight. Jessalin crashed from her SL weekend, but the boys were all still up. John keeps closing hours even when he works an afternoon shift because they change him from one to the other and this is the easiest for him. We live on different schedules. Jordan has not gone back to school........Jacob doesn't go back until after Labor day. I have no idea what anyone else is doing with their plans. I am just waiting around for other people--trying to play Mom/wifey still.
SO, this morning, I wake up and I can hear something strange.......first thought--someone was parked up front as it was machine/engine type sound.....running constantly. I can't fall back to sleep, not so much from the sound but the cats have pulled the temporary curtain off the window again and it's pretty much day. When I come out into the living room, I am attacked by cats. This means that no one fed them when they finally came to bed around 4 or 5 am or later. I am shepard-ed by hungry animals towards the laundry room where cat food dish is and discover........the source of the SOUND. The freezer door is wide open.......the refrigerator working OVERTIME to keep THE WHOLE HOUSE cold. The ice cubes, freezie sticks, ice cream......EVERYTHING is liquid, barely cold to the touch--most of the stuff in there is ruined as far as I'm concerned.
WTF people?????????????
Frankly, I am sick of this crap. How dumb and wasteful.
Jordan admits to getting a freezie pop but thinks he closed the door. John was still up when he did it which means even if Jordan did it accidentally (the refrigerator could stand to be balanced so that it leans back a bit so the doors MIGHT close by themselves--I can't do it and requests to do it have gone ignored like lots of things I ask people to do) somehow John didn't notice it when he finally got off the computer this morning.
John used to AT LEAST set up the coffee pot for me. NOW.....I get up and the cats aren't fed, the fans are still on, windows open, doors unlocked, lights on, etc.........and NOW THIS.
I'm running around here UNPLUGGING things because our utilities are becoming a problem to pay and someone leaves the freezer door open.
I have no problem with mindless computer games, partying, etc. but in moderation--not so much you become dull or unaware of your surroundings or you start to INCONVENIENCE ME OR COST ME MONEY. You know, not so much electronic or other types of stimulants/depressants until you're too dense to notice the FREEZER IS OPEN.
Really.......
I feel a rampage coming on. Or another big change in my life. I am a ghost in my own home again.
