Ra’Chelle -
My Sensi. Queer. Our Age. Girl Problems. Depressed. Compulsive Spender.
She seemed safe enough, being my karate teacher, Pit Bull friendly, and queer.
She ended up taking my rent money and spending it on bullshit, later getting us evicted.
So much for Roommate #1.
Rico -
Friend of a friend. Girl problems. No job. SSI check. Drama queen. Clothes fiend.
Our most memorable roommate has to be Jericka, AKA Rico. She was a handful.
She attempted suicide in our bathroom for attention from a girl who didn’t want her anymore.
So ends roommate #2.
Elise -
Craigslist. Creepy. Our age, no friends. Lame. No life goals.
We figured after having a friend roommate followed by a friend of a friend roommate both fail, we would try the stranger approach. We wrote an agreement, made her sign stuff and thought it was all dandy. We were wrong.
She wracked up a $600+ bill with the landlord after losing her job.
The 3rd time wasn’t the charm.
Taryn -
Craigslist. Friends. Not lame. No life goals. Stripper. 3 kids, no custody. SSI. Alkie.
Things with Elise were going alright (it was still early on) and we had room for one more. Rent split 3 ways sounded fabulous.
Note: Rent split 3 ways is only fabulous when it’s paid. She wracked up $400+ more onto the bill.
Roommate number 4 is gone with the wind.
Jaz -
Friend of both myself and the gf. Life goals. Outgoing. Fun. Job. Baby. Figures.
After all that mess we wanted no more roommates…then we caught up with our friend Jaz. She was looking for a place to stay for a while with her daughter. No problem, she moved in.
The house was old and the dust/”old” of the house got the best of the baby’s allergies/sensitive skin and they had to move out. Best roommate we had, lost to fucking dust. Life is a bitch sometimes.
Roommate 5, outie.
