roommate shenanigans

also on the train Kate was winking at my reflection in the window and turned her head to wink at actual me and said “oh I got whiplash I moved my head too fast I flew too close to the sun I’m Icarus”

Highlights of Kate and me going to our English department’s holiday party tonight:

-Kate telling me ahead of time that I had to make sure she didn’t fight one of her professors

-me opening a bottle of sparkling water and it exploding all over the floor about one minute after we got there (and a professor who loves me walking by and saying “I knew I could count on you!” in a cheerful voice which what does that even mean)

-Kate calling like five things “a whole ass mood” within about ten minutes

-“I love lesbians!”

-someone Kate and I both really like but rarely interact with introducing themselves to us

-Kate abandoning me to a boring and awkward conversation with our advisor and her husband and another professor’s husband

-the new Dean looking very awkward and wearing socks with unicorns and narwhals fighting

-Kate drinking slightly more than she intended, leading her to get a little tipsy and getting kind of panicked but giggly when she couldn’t find her jacket, then getting rapidly drunker after we left, resulting in her saying “I don’t want Public Safety to know I’m drunk!” immediately before breaking into a run and crashing into a bush then loudly saying “oh a sewer – hi Pennywise!”

me: Do you want me to wake you up really fast?

Kate, seconds after turning her alarm off: No

me: The Avengers trailer is out

Kate: WHAT

Teresa: What’s going on in there??

Kate and me: Taxidermy!

Teresa: What?!?

us: Yeah!

Teresa: … I’m going to the dining hall… Bye….

“I Enjolras you, you Enjolras me, let’s go defeat the patriarchy!”

-Kate to the tune of the Barney song

My attraction to him is mostly primal,

Kate

why did we just let Kate watch the dusting scene from Infinity War with My Heart Will Go On playing over it we should have known she would be a mess this was irresponsible

I don’t know what I expected when I asked my friends if they wanted to go to Spring Awakening

someone stole Kate’s penguin, Detective Michael Cordero Jr Jr, and hid him in her closet, which she didn’t notice until she was moments from going to sleep and rolled over to hug him and just slowly said “WHERE IS MICHAEL”

we just competitively yawned, pretty standard night
