Backstory: To my conservative mother, recycling and having gay friends basically makes you a rebel. She’s always trying to be supportive of my wacky life “choices”. A slip of a pronoun is enough to send her imagination running.

Hi son,

I called your house today and your roommate answered. When asked to speak to you he said, “She’s not here.”

Why’d he say she? Is there something you need to tell me? Let me know.

Love, Mom

Backstory: My roommate doesn’t care for me and does nothing to hide it.

This girl sound like she should be the “Passive Aggressive poster girl.” Anger issues? She’s out of control so she wants to control you? The less you seem to let it bother you, the more angry she gets? Try a good old-fashioned “bitch slap” Only kidding…I just love to say it…bitch slap…bitch slap…bitch slap.

My roommate and I decided to bring in a third roommate to share my room in our apartment to cut on costs and I was upset about the lack of independence it would bring.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

I hope you had a great day and are looking forward to the future! Just because you now have a roommate does not mean you are going backwards – instead you are resourceful in order to keep the money you earn and save for the future you want. A little sacrifice now tastes so much sweeter later. IT should get you excited to find ways to save yourself some of that hard earned money. Frugal is very IN right now and it is very self satisfying. Cangratulate yourself and pat yourself on the back – I am proud of you. It is not shameful to save money – on the contrary. Satan wants you to think you are deprived but when you take control you have the power over money. DOnt serve it let money serve you!

Love you and I am proud of you. Be so grateful for this opportunity. God is providing.

Love,

MOM
