Day of total drama

Having a house mate can have it's drawbacks.....

So..., it was the late with the first rent thing. Not a promising start. I've told David that he's in charge of the money thing as my head is fucked with money these days. He is not impressed at all. The house mate says he has money in the bank, goes to get it out, and disappears for the day. Ends up out partying and betting at the TAB. He comes home and doesn't have the rent. WTF? Not a good start at all. 

He goes out again and doesn't come home the night. David sends him a text to come and pack his things and leave. He comes home saying he has the rent with him. He gets here and doesn't have it. David tells him to leave again. I stay in the middle of it all for moral support for David. The tension goes on and on. We just don't need this fuckin shit.

House mate's friend arrives to pick him up. The friend tries to talk sense to the house mate who has every excuse under the sun why he doesn't have the rent. I say David and I have a better excuse, saying we had to go to Vinnies to get food, but the rent was still paid. House mates friend gives a guarantee that the rent will be paid. David relents. House mate sees sense at last.

Fucks sake man. The guy is an adult and he needs educating about the importance of paying rent? Anyway he's staying on a two week probation period, if he fucks up again he's gone. 

David and I both stressed out. I go to bed for a bit and sleep for hours. Just so tired these days.....
