sounds like freshman year

I spent my freshman year at UT in an off-campus dorm. My roomie and I shared one wall and a bathroom with two other guys. The way the rooms were aligned made it so that one guy’s “head” of the bed was right across the wall from the other guy’s. So essentially, all that separated our beds was a thin wall. Needless to say, one of my suitemates shared his bed quite often with girls, and I heard more than I cared to.

After several years of sharing apartments with other guys, and living alone, I decided the time had come to leave apartment-life altogether. Thus, just three weeks ago, I moved out of my apartment into a duplex with an old friend. No more sharing walls with strange people. A woman who the landlord says is 40 years old lives upstairs. She’s a teacher. She seems very nice. My bedroom is directly beneath her bedroom. Please hold on to this nugget of information because it becomes vital very soon.

I came home around 11 o’clock last night from having dinner with an old buddy from UT. As I pull up to the house, I notice a red SUV out front. None of my friends drive a red SUV and, to my knowledge, neither do any of my roommate’s. I figured the lady upstairs must have had a friend over.

GOOD LORD did she have a friend over. I got to hear him, and her, and the bed, all while I was trying to fall asleep. I don’t think I can look her in the eye ever again and not remember the things I heard.

remember a few key phrases and then casually drop them into unrelated conversation with friends whenever she's nearby. think: "Yeah. My car is in the shop and the mechanic is telling me all the things wrong with me car. I'm all like, 'don't stop big stud'. he's like, 'don't worry, this won't take long'."

Tell her to knock $50 off your rent or the next time you talk about her on this blog you will mention her name.

Not that I'm really into one-upsmanship, but I want to impart with you the following quote I heard once: "It's all right, he's still asleep." I wasn't still asleep.
