Warped Isolation

Gahhhhhhh!!!!!!!

What the hell are my roomates' problems?

I mean for crying out loud, we live on campus in a town with 135, 000 people in it. There are no fucking axe murderers in Thunder Bay!!! SO WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY do they insist on locking the door at every possible opportunity? I mean, Mriss was standing 6 feet from the front door at the stove -- WHY did the door need to be locked? Why, in -20 degree weather, at 7 O'clock at night (and earlier, approx 3 in the afternoon,) does she feel that I should have to take my gloves off, fumble around in my purse and get out a key to a door that is locked FOR ABSOLUTELY NO REASON!!?!?!?!

I find it really hard to feel safe in a place where I feel I have to barricade myself against the outside like some huge paranoiac who is looking for conspiracies around every corner. Feeling locked out of my house for no reason at all doesn't give me a warm 'hey im home' feeling, it gives me a 'someone is trying to keep me out of MY space' feeling. In New York I can mostly understand, in Toronto, I could understand, in places like Guelph and Thunder Bay, I do not understand at all. Really, if someone wanted to get into our house, it woukd be a simple enough thing to smash the big bay window right next to the front door, or even take the screen off and shove the sliding glass to the side and clamber in -- because the window doesn't need to be locked, indeed, people leave it wide open in -20 Degrees! Don't as me why, but it's happened several times!

I just don't understand, and it hurts my soul. Is she a three year old? Do all the lights in the house have to be on and the door locked because she is afraid of the dark, and the monster in the closet? I know I'm being hateful, but why does her need for (as far as im concerned,) pretend safety, have to override mine?

I would suggest hiding in the shower wearing a hockey mask and holding a knife. That should solve both the door locking issue (why lock the doors when the killer is already inside) and I guarantee she'll take shorter showers after that.

Although that is a highly entertaining idea, I hardly think it's a viable solution to my problem. I mean, It would make her more paranoid than before, so I would be liable to get beaned in the head with a baseball bat while innocently walking around a corner one day. I will hold it in reserve though just in case I ever decide I need ner roomates. :P
