Dear Former Roommates,
We’ve been through a lot together over the years, and I just wanted to take this time to say, no matter which of my former roommates you are, that I’m sorry for waking you up.
Jessie, I’m sorry for waking you up during the month I went to the gym every morning. I had big dreams then, and I’m glad you were there to share in them.
Brenda, I’m sorry for getting up early senior year to finish my homework before class. I’m also sorry for coming home late because I was finishing up homework. Finally, I’m sorry for coming home drunk every weekend and waking you up because I used alcohol to help me cope with the amount of homework I had. But hey, you won’t have to deal with me anymore now! Hopefully you won’t have any roommates at all!
To Catherine, I say good luck getting up for your early classes in grad school when you won’t have me to use the blender at 7:00 AM. Plus, I shared my smoothies with you after you got up at the sound of my smoothie making, so I have no regrets.
Becky, I’m sorry for waking you up when you took your afternoon naps. I knew you were sleeping, but I thought I could practice my guitar softly without waking you. It was the only time of day I was free to practice!
You’ve all been very kind to me, so I think it’s the least I can do to apologize for waking you up, and to remind you that I might need to crash on somebody’s couch for a few weeks this summer.
