Dirrrrrty Dishes and the Same Old Routine

Warning: This is a RANT. Proceed with your own instinct.

After coming home from three days away in the city, my kitchen sink is full of dirty dishes. Actually, the kitchen is just plain filthy. I live in a house with three other women, one is which is away. The other two have been home for the last couple of days. I don't mind doing the dishes-- I was everything in the sink and put away the clean dishes in the dishwaher. Some of the tupperware I put back in the dish rack for convenience (I knew I was going to clean the kitchen later). I also vacuumed the living room, hallways, and back office. I acknowledge that lately I have not been cleaning as much as possible, but at the same time, have not been home that much, hence feeling that the mess wasn't mine to clean. Tonight I had plan on cleaning everything for tomorrow, which I am hosting my first thanksgiving dinner. Needless to say, my plans changed. Due to the turkey defrosting and one of my housemates bringing over a friend who was cooking/baking, I was not able to get back to the kitchen. Later my other housemate came home and they all decided to watch two movies in the living (where I originally was studying, but moved because of the noise).

After a couple of hours, I decided to take a shower. When I got out of the shower I caught my two housemates gossiping behind my back and the one's friend was making a mess of the kitchen. I WAS PISSED. I could hear them saying "oh wow she actually did the dishes" BITCH PLEASE! I was the dishes (including ones that are not mine) at least three times a week. I do it at times when people are not home, because that is usually when I prefer to be home so I do not see them. I was so hurt that they would do such a thing, especially since I have not bitched about one of them consistently not cleaning the drain in the bathroom. I had to finally stick up for myself, which I could tell caught them off guard.

Moral of the story is that I do not trust these women. I am done covering for someone who can turn on me so quickly. Why do I have to be quiet when you study when you can watch two movies and be HELLA loud when I am working on my final papers..... serisouly I am rarely ever home and thats the time to do it? Right now I should be reading Trinh Minh Ha and instead I am blogging my frustrations to help calm me down. UGH!!!!!

There is so much more I could write.. but I will try not to let it get to me. Fucking Bitches!
