The blanket

An aim conversation with a housemate in the library…I don’t know why it was so funny.

me: Something totally random.
me: I was thinking of getting a heated blanket,
me: but I got a cheap, warmer blanket instead,
me: because the blankets I had were those ultra synthetic wal-mart ones.
me: Like they are fluffy but not very warm,
me: So my cheap warmer blanket is… like fake fleece,
me: And its a light show in my bed every night.
me: It’s SO staticy that it sparks when i pull it over
housemate: Mines the same!!
me: It’s like fireworks!
housemate: it’s relaly fun with the lights out!
me: THATS WHAT SHE SAID!
me: But no seriously, I think I’m going to die of a bed fire
me: I don’t know why that’s so funny.
housemate: are we below the poverty line?
me: I’m like crying.
me: YES.
housemate: like how below?
me: The poverty line is like a glass ceiling right now.
me: I think if you make under $20,000 a year, or $25,000.
housemate: wow
me: So considering I’ve never made that much…ever.
housemate: that’s bad
housemate: well you’re a student in debt
