Riona has been alot more open. She strikes up a conversation with just about all of us. I saw her talking to Enu in the kitchen the other day. She was telling her how much she appreciated her cleaning. That's good for all of us, you know? Having her be so nice. It does wonders for our self-esteem and boy, do we need it. Being in a nut house, your self-esteem plummets.
But yeah, Enu does most of the cleaning. The chores are divided between her, me and Axelle. Axelle handles alot of the cooking, I bring home money and Enu keeps the place clean. The shower is FOREVER broken and shoots water of DEATH all over the place. That repairman does a crappy job, srsly. Waste of money...at least Enu mops up the puddles.
She does know when to take breaks, though. Sometimes, she sits down with me and we watch Oprah. Sometimes she helps Demyan get into a tree so he can try to jump on the roof and get us free cable.. Sometimes she hangs out with Shura and they play chess. I never play chess with her, though. She wins too much.
But I tell ya, she's definately changed since coming here. She has put on alot of weight. Not that it's a bad thing. Don't get me wrong. I like chunky girls. But chunky girls need to have some modesty, you know? Riona doesn't walk around in her panties, why do you?
But the pizzza guy sure likes it. He's a bit of a perv. He is ALWAYS coming by. I know it is just to see girls in their undies walk around the place. At least he brings free pizza. I'm cool with that.
But he needs to be more useful. Aren't dudes supposed to fix up the house? None of these bastards do a thing when stuff breaks. I'd think someone with brains like Shura would know how to fix a TV when a circut goes out. But noooo. Let meeee do it. Jerks.
But seriously, why does everything constantly break in this place? The shower, the microwave, the TV...it's getting annoying. Big time. I can't keep fixing all this stuff or else I'm gonna go crazy! I need something to distract me!
I decided to give the matchmaker a call. I could really use some company outside of this place. I was really hoping she found someone perfect for me. But who knows? She's a bit off her rocker so I can't trust her too much with making life-changing decisions for me.
But I am happy with who she did set me up with. She's the mail carrier so we've met before. But I never really spoke to her so this was a nice time to get to know her. She seemed cool enough. We immediantly bonded over our shared love of Pablo Francisco. "You got to get out of here, they're trying to take my tortilla!"
She's pretty awesome and unlike that snotty grocery girl, she isn't afraid to hug on the first date. Why...we did a bit more than hugging. Ha. It was niiiiice. She has tangerine-flavored lip gloss! You do not walk away from that.
She even leaves me gifts. How awesome is that? I was at work and apparently, she climbed the gate just to drop off a potted plant she got me. Axelle saw her and said it was the cutest and funniest thing she'd ever seen. But when Dr. Stein got word, he was furious! "NO! You can't be the only one getting gifts, it's not fair to the others!" So he jacked my gift and said he'd hold on to it until my time was up. Prick.
The others weren't jealous at all. The guys were still wetting themselves over the fact I'm a lesbian. You know guys. Love the lady-loving ladies. Riona and Ax thought it was sweet and Enu didn't care either way. Only Masuyo had a problem. "How come YOU get gifts?! That's not fair!" Whatever, chick. I works for mine.
As long as she leaves me alone, I don't have much of a problem with her. She's just so catty, you know? So to make sure she doesn't bother me, I had her on kitchen duty. Ax was a bit worried, though. Apparently, Masuyo doesn't know how to cook...
Apparently. Apparently. This is, what? The 5th fire this month? It was definately the worse thus far. I wasn't home when it happened. I just saw the damage done. It took out the stove, the coutner and the fridge. It was awful. Luckily, no one got hurt too badly. Riona did get burned, though.
But she didn't seem to worry so much about it. She got treated and helped out with the cleaning up efforts. Dr. Stein said he'd send over a new stove and fridge but we all got a stern talking to. I don't know why I got yelled at. I wasn't there, I had nothing to do with it! ...aside from making Masuyo cook...
Masuyo really blamed herself for the fire, as she should. She needs to learn that when you are cooking things on the stove, don't leave them there! Demyan and Riona have been giving her the cold shoulder so she's been whiny about being unpopular now.
But she's not the ony one getting the third degree. For some reason, Brodie blames me for the fire. I don't know why. I know, I told her to cook but I thought she had more common sense than a weasel. Screw you, Brodie. You and your well-oiled chest don't scare me.
It's been...I forget how many weeks. It feels like months, actually. I'm getting tired of this place. I've thrown myself into my work, schmoozing my bosses and trying to look great so I can get promotions left and right. I want out!
