The honeymoon is over

I'm only a week away from Thanksgiving break. Just as it happened last year, I am officially sick of my roommate. It's not that she's loud or incredibly messy like my roommate last year. It's just I'm tired of having her around, and I'm ready for space of my own.

Last night I went to bed around 11:20, but didn't fall asleep until after midnight when my roomie got in bed. At 1:30, her phone starts ringing. I can hear the person on the other end of the line say, "it's snowing!" My roommate then has to get up, dressed, and leave the room to verify that it is, indeed, snowing. I couldn't believe it. If this were a heavy snow expected to accumulate and get us out of school, then yeah, go check it out. But a light snow that will amount to nothing?

She's from the eastern part of the state which doesn't get snow very often, so I guess it's glamorous to her. But me, I just wanted to go back to sleep. Because of her nocturnal outing, she's been napping for over an hour. I feel like I have to tiptoe around to keep from waking her up, but then I feel ridiculous doing that because it's 3:00 in the afternoon, and she shouldn't would need to sleep right now if she would just sleep during the night like a normal person.

I'm not always such a bitchy roommate, I promise. I'm just getting antsy for some free time coming up over Thanksgiving and Christmas break. I'll be better in January.
