In accordance with the diagnosis I received yesterday, I decided it’s time to rid myself of some of the causes of stress in my life. The doctor seemed to think that being in school was cause for a great deal of my stress. Contrary to popular belief, school doesn’t generally stress me out. It used [...]

There’s just no pleasing some people. My strict policy of laissez-faire home economics was called into question today by She With the Clenched Butt Cheeks.

Generally, I’m not terribly bothered by [...]

I can think of no other explanation [...]

I don’t think I’ll ever understand some of the culture of this place. Or maybe it’s just that I live with someone who’s extraordinarily anal retentive and obsessive compulsive. Both? At this point, I have no way of knowing.
Part one: As I’ve started to settle in here, I’ve been working really hard to get all [...]
