Okay, maybe I've had too much sun and it has impaired my better judgment. I'm enjoying my friend’s pool today contemplating on how I am going to kill my roommate. LOL! I don't understand how you can live like a pig and not feel embarrassed. We have the sweetest cleaning lady and she even gets grossed out by the filth.
I know it sounds like fun to have a house in Kuwait with three, single girls living together. We should live in harmony while we cook together, watch movies and drink coffee on the veranda with some girl talk about boys. When I was a contractor I had older roommates and they were terrific. We had a blast living together. There were parties, cookouts, movies, etc. We all got along (99% of the time) and liked each other’s friends. Now that I had to go out and get a new place on my own I decided to live in a house with two other girls. I am now rethinking this idea and leaning towards getting my own place.
I've tried talking to the nasty roommate and she said she would ‘try’ to do better. My other roommate agrees with me but she is never here. She is really cool but practically lives with her fiancé. Miss Piggy is hardly ever here either but she stays enough to mess up the entire house. When I was sick I never saw them. I just saw the trail of mess from Miss Piggy.
I left notes but apparently Miss Piggy can't read. I used to clean up after her but now I've stopped. Our cleaning lady comes twice a week and even she can't keep up with her disgusting habits. We pay her extra now because believe me she deserves it.

Miss Piggy cooks and when she is done the entire kitchen looks like she used a blender and forgot to put the top on. There is food all over the walls, cabinets, the appliances, and the floor and even inside the kitchen drawers. When she washes dishes she doesn't wash them with enough soap and so I have to wash everything she has touched before I use it. They are sticky with food stuck on them. She forgets to shut the fridge / freezer door at least three times a week so that all of our food melts. She doesn't buy her own food but loves to steal ours. She leaves a sticky mess all over the fridge handle so when you go to open it your hand sticks to it. It would never occur to her to take out the trash. She usually misses the trash can and there is food all over the cover and the floor. She never cleans her lint out of the dryer so it's packed full and disgusting when you go to wash. Lint is a fire hazard which I can't complain about since my cooking sometimes starts small kitchen fires. Ooops! I've found anything and everything in our washer. Money, trash, maxi pads, a black substance that looked like dog sh**t! I am hoping that it wasn't.
I think I’ve tried almost everything and now it's time to get my own place. Most of my friends live in company provided housing that is free from their US companies so they can't share with me. I'm going to start looking for an apartment this week. I might get lucky and find a floor for rent in a villa that isn't too expensive. The US Companies have ruined the real estate market in Kuwait. The prices are ridiculous thanks to these companies that overpay and they can see an American coming a mile away.
