Time Consumption

I didn't really have time for a post yesterday and I don't have time for a long post right now... here's why.

Yesterday, the houseguest didn't head to sleep until about one thirty in the afternoon, thanks mostly to the 360. Meaning, I got about an hour in the living room before heading back to the bedroom so the houseguest could sleep. Not much Blogger time. I let the guy sleep and took a small nap myself simply to pass time and was going to start passing back and forth in front of him to get to the kitchen, time for him to get up and I still had shit to do. Just as I am about to get up, the hubby walks in the door, off early.

So, my day completely wasted, what did the evening hold? Tall and Sassy came over. Apparently Sassy was begging him to do so, never thought she'd have to beg him to come over, I guess I figured if there was any begging involved it would be him to her. Anyway, the houseguest left for work, our little punk rocker friend stopped by, Tall and Sassy finally showed then Hairy and his buddy stopped by. Small living room, lot of people, hardly the time to blog.

Very, very slowly people filed out, too sleepy to keep going past one in the morning. When it was just down to us and Tall and Sassy, finally I had access to my computer. Sassy was drifting but I was determined to complete my goal. I had Tall sign into Sassy's email so I could accept my invitation for her to blog with me. I set the whole thing up for her so let's see if she actually posts! Not only will it be interesting but I think it will be good for her.

Today, I wake up to the houseguest watching television, I guess he hasn't figured out how to switch the inputs to play the 360 yet. I'm up now of course, blogging, and he still hasn't slept. In about an hour and a half I will sulk back to my bedroom as he finally decides to get some sleep so he can work again tonight. Sigh.

I can't wait for next Friday, payday, for both the hubby and the houseguest. It will be very telling about how this whole thing will play out in the future and hopefully I'll feel better about it all. I know part of my issue is just learning to live with a new person. It's never easy. It was at least easier with our last houseguest (or bum, it's more suiting for him, heh) because he hung out with us a lot for a couple years before ending up on our couch. I knew all the little things that were annoying about him, as well as knew what I could (for lack of a better word) "fix" about him to make co-existing easier.

All I know is this schedule is going to get harder and harder to deal with so I am going to have the hubby speak to the houseguest about trying a little harder to sleep when we are sleeping. I don't like having to be the one who suffers. I take no satisfaction in being a martyr for this cause while the hubby basically just gets another boy to play with.

Time to roast a bowl or two before the hubby has to start getting ready for work. Always the best way to start a day! Plus it will help with that lovely time consuming nap I am going to be trying to take later. Is it bad that I miss my chores?
