this entry is about boring house stuff...
so i think i am actually going to start writing in my lj again. more often. if it's nto too busy at work.
so... current issue... CARA AND NEVIN.
Ok to start out. nevin is not really a problem. he is like a little well trained kid at a parents friends house. he is polite offers to do chores and pretty much stays out of the way. so i figure why not have him give me money for staying here. At first i was like "no" because i thought by having him give me money i would have to give him equal rights in the household. but i decided that actually, i can be a controlling bitch if i want. Technically i did not go into this household with him or cara. I went into it with miguel we were the only ones who have been here since we got it and I am the only one on the lease. That is nice. because lannie has unknowingly let me be a control bitch if i want. see... i am so torn. because i want to make people fell comfortable and happy and free to do what they want...but i dont want people to feel too comfortable to the point of taking advantage of you or the space. It is a fine line... a very fine line as i have learned based on my past roomates situations. Anyway, last night i realized that i have been overpaying rent by 100$ for the past 3 months. and it has come from me directly. so i have been paying $100 more then everyone else. but that menas that our rent will go back down to 1300 as of next month. should i still charge my roomates the extra and keep the difference to make up for my over pay? Or what? i am releived though... this means that the rent will go back down quicker then if i had paid regular for the past 3 months. It was hard to scrap by them... but thats the past now! (this model should teach me the joys of saving.hmmm..)Anyway, i dont know, does it seem weird to anyone else? I think to myself i really want to liv ehere. i like this house and it's relativly cheep and it would be a great place to raise children..heck i was raised here. It's close to miguels job and he wants to work there for a while. but i cant really imagine the day i just kick cara out. But they mentioned moving out somewhere together.. i dont know how that will go. hopefully by them mig and i will be ready to pay the rent alone. blahh.. now i am just bumbling.ttfn!
