Most people like visitors to stop by. Especially when they’re old, long lost friends you haven’t seen in years. One day when I was 20 I got a knock on my door from a visitor. Like most people, I assumed this visit would be temporary. 11 years later and he still hasn’t left. And no matter what I did to entice him to find another residence, he refused to budge. In fact, he would do small, annoying things everyday to remind me that he’s here, not paying rent, not going anywhere. Kinda like when you can’t get your roommate’s boyfriend to leave, and just to piss you off he leaves the toilet seat up. I guess some people just don’t know when they’ve overstayed their welcome. See, my little visitor, my permanent roommate touches everything I do from head to toe.
And if his never-ending presence wasn’t enough, he invited one of his friends to move in too. Yep – you guessed it – rent free, and completely uninvited with no intentions of moving out. And to make matters even worse, these two moochers have decided to get jealous over who gets to occupy more of my time and compete for my attention.
I know what you must be thinking….. get a back bone and put your foot down about kicking them out. Get control of your house – have a little order. Well, I’m open for suggestions. I can’t get these two guys to move out. I can’t even get them to pick up after themselves. They are constantly pulling stunts to sway my loyalty to the other side, and it’s not pretty. The sad thing is, as bad as I want to kick them out – I wouldn’t wish these two morons on my worst enemy. So in a way, I guess I’m stuck with them.
But I am open to any ideas, suggestions, or advice you may have…..
Maybe it would help to introduce you to my unwanted roommates: Multiple Sclerosis and Heart Failure. Any takers??

OH my precious Lindsey,
I know you must get tired. I wish I could beat the crap out of your two unwanted roommates. I love you
