Other than my parents.  However I am falable.  I am human and I sin.  I don&#8217;t have any funky scripture to quote back.  I just have common curtosey.<\/p>\n<p>I had someone in my home for 2 months.  They were only supposed to stay for 2 weeks.  He stayed for 2 months and did not contribute anything to the household.  He got free rent for two months.  He got free utilities for two months.  The only thing that i asked him to do was to do the dishes, lock the doors, and to pull the shower curtain closed all the way &#8211; after usage.  He did not help dust, or vaccum, or mop.  I had a maid service that would come in and do that.  Alas &#8211; no help.  But apparently I was such an evil roommate.  I asked him what I had done wrong &#8211; and he would not tell me.  So now &#8211; I have no way of knowing what it was that I had done wrong.  I went into the hospital &#8211; and I did not even get a call from the person who was staying in my home for free &#8211; not even a getwell call.  I did not expect a visit &#8211; I knew that he was working 2 jobs.  I did not expect a present &#8211; I knew that he was saving up for college tuition.  But not even a call.  He would not even return my calls. I know that he received them &#8211; because I started cc&#8217;ing his mom&#8217;s # to all the text and voicemails.  This way &#8211; she would let him know that I had been trying to contact him.  I felt used and abused. <\/p>\n<p>Now &#8211; out of humanity and sinning -I left a crude message on his xanga: &#8220;Yeah &#8211; being blocked really sucks doesn&#8217;t it.  You are welcome for the 2 months of free rent and the month of free food.  I am sorry I wasn&#8217;t that great of a friend to you.  I called you and paged you and sent voicemails to you &#8211; with no response.  I even apologized for anything wrong i did &#8211; some christian you are&#8230;maybe it&#8217;s a good thing you didn&#8217;t get to go to the college in UK &#8211; you wouldn&#8217;t have won anyone over to Christ anyways&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>I doubt it will be there for very long &#8211; he has a way of deleting comments that don&#8217;t suit him.  Of course he doesn&#8217;t remember that in January &#8211; when his host kicked him out of his house &#8211; who was the one who took him in?  Me.  And then he came back this summer &#8211; who did he stay with &#8211; me.  If he only stayed with me for 2 weeks &#8211; like he promised &#8211; and sought out another host family &#8211; I am pretty sure we would still be friends.  However, he never even said thankyou for the roof over his head &#8211; or thankyou for the food.  I wasn&#8217;t looking for a payback &#8211; I was just simply asking for a thankyou.  When someone stays at another&#8217;s house for free -they say thankyou!  <\/p>\n<p>I admit &#8211; I even called his momma &#8211; but no good came of it.  Just like any good parent &#8211; she supported him and did not even listen to my complaints.  But please be aware &#8211; he sucks as a person.  If you do not check in with him and let him know what&#8217;s going on in your life &#8211; then you don&#8217;t want to be friends with him.  Nevermind the fact that I had a life before he came to live with me &#8211; working at CCC, working at UOP, working at Younglife, going to school.  I could go on &#8211; but I digress &#8211; and many of you might say &#8220;boy is Lori really way out of line&#8221;  but that is your own thought &#8211; if you chose not to hang out with me after this blog &#8211; then maybe you weren&#8217;t really my friend to begin with.<\/p>\n<p>**************<\/p>\n<p>Her email<\/p>\n<p>**************<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Why are you being so mean?  Why did you stay with me for so long if you couldn&#8217;t stand me?  Why?  Who was there for you in Dec\/Jan when apparently the same thing with Orion happend?  Maybe it&#8217;s you and not everyone else?  You will probably delete this message and not respond &#8211; just like you did my voicemails and text.  Oh well.  When and if you come back to AZ &#8211; please don&#8217;t call me.  I can&#8217;t afford to have this happen again in my life. <\/p>\n<p>I wish your brother the best in court and please say hi to your parents.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>**************<\/p>\n<p>Seriously?  You have some problems.. well more than some.  It is hard to imagine that I spent about 2 months with in your house, that&#8217;s right&#8211; lets make it public&#8230; the way you want it to be..  You really want to go here?  You really want me to bring it out?  No you don&#8217;t.  It will leave you ashamed, probably more confused and frustrated than you claim to be.<\/p>\n<p>If I really knew it was supposed to be for two weeks&#8230; then I would have been gone.<\/p>\n<p>I cleaned the apartment, constantly.. and constantly you made it a mess, you made it a Pigsty.<\/p>\n<p>I also paid for all of my food, another reason that I was constantly low in money, when you knew I was getting paid min. wage ($5.15\/hr) from the church.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for leaving the house for a week on end and not letting me know by phone or text if you are okay.  Thank you for the lies to my face, saying that you&#8217;ve called and texted me.  Thank you revealing your true self so that I am fully aware.<\/p>\n<p>Who was there for me in Dec\/Jan?  You, and can you wear two faces?  You did, you proved that to me many times this summer.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe it&#8217;s me?  Lol, I&#8217;m sorry.. if I did a roommates laundry.. I am pretty sure they wouldn&#8217;t condescendingly talk down to me and tell me to never touch their things again.  I am sure that if I left a dish or two in the sink (so I could do a full load in the dishwasher) that I wouldn&#8217;t be lectured to clean the dishes after every single dish is dirty.<\/p>\n<p>I am sure of it.  I&#8217;ve kept in contact with many people, and many are aware of the very odd way you demand these things yet can&#8217;t even keep a clean apartment yourself.<\/p>\n<p>Or the roaches that roam&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t call me out, especially not on this.<\/p>\n<p>Lori Lori, to think that I would call you to infer that we are friends.  When in fact&#8211; this summer has proved otherwise.<\/p>\n<p>Please don&#8217;t contact me anymore&#8230; that&#8217;s why you aren&#8217;t in my phone book, aren&#8217;t in my address book, blocked from xanga, and myspace.<\/p>\n<p>Just.. don&#8217;t.  No means no.<\/p>\n<p>The funniest thing looking back on all of this&#8230;the whole ordeal was that at the beginning of the summer, Lori said she wanted to be a &#8216;blessing&#8217; to me, (after she heard a church sermon) she called me and said how she would get things I wanted, blah blah blah help me in any way.<\/p>\n<p>Like most people who are Fantastic regular attenders to church&#8230;. it goes in one ear&#8230; stays for a few seconds (enough to say this to me) and then out the other.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lori Ann Walker.
