odd night

this is gonna sound made up, but it’s not. friday night, just before 4am, I was awakened by the sound of my doorbell ringing non-stop. thinking it might be my landlady with some emergency, I stumble half awake to the door, but when I open it I find three drunk girls looking for someone I’ve never heard of (two of them had bottles of beer and were smoking). i’m about to close the door, when they ask for lucy, mirella’s daughter, saying they used to live here with her. so they know my landlady and her daughter. i tell them lucy doesn’t live here anymore, and am again about to close the door when they start begging to come in to use the bathroom.

in my right mind i probably wouldn’t have let them in, but i was half asleep, in a daze. two of them went into the bathroom together, while the other told me about how my room used to be hers like 15 years ago, and she’d painted the room purple, and the ceilings had been yellow, and there’d been, like, 17 people living in the basement, and bla, and bla, and bla… and finally we realize her friends are taking a while. so she knocks on the door, and they come out. as I’m escorting them out, one of them says, “i wonder why mirella didn’t answer her doorbell?” ya think it might have something to do with it being 4am?

at this point i have to piss, so i go into the bathroom and find everything that i keep on the sink (toothpaste, razor, shaving cream) in the cabinet under the sink, and everything that goes in the cabinet is either in the sink, on the floor, or in the shower! stupid drunk girls. a very odd night.
