*Grin* Yes, as a southern women I know what your saying about how we are masters of flattery, while subversively thinking "I'd like to stick a knife somewhere in your anatomy..." *chuckle* I usually just vented to my best friend about what my roomie did to piss me off...the true "Girl" thing to do. LOL! And yea, someimes going home and giving eachother space is the best. I only lived 2 1/2 hours from my college, so I went home TONS of times to get away from my old roomie (who didn't have a car, so therefore she couldn't go home herself...*jeesh*) I wish you good luck and safe travle home! Watch out for the highway patrole! ~Mel (who got popped by Highway Patrole many-a-time on my way home...for speeding *innocent smile*)

Tell you Janet .... I really would NOT talk to her. If she is not stealing your stuff; food-shampoo etc that has to be out; if she is not verbally at you; then I say let it be.
She sounds like she is putting on a show for the people she wants to be her friends & let the show drop the second they are out of site - a dangerous person; since you know nothing of her motivations.
I say - act as if she is not there unless she says something & then jump your niceness all over any opening you get. Keep doing the excuse me's and do you want some of my chips & leave it at that.

That's what I say, as well Catbird. You've tried your best. I say ignore the little twit. I'm sure you've other things taking your time...school, old movies, life. So...anyone catch "Lackawanna Blues" with S. Epetha Merkerson over the weekend? "S" sure can act! And light up the screen. ETA: Any Robert B. Parker fans? His Jesse Stone character comes to TV on Sunday. www.cbs.com/specials/stone_cold/

I heard S. and "Lackawanna Blues" got great reviews! But alas, I didn't catch it. And Janet, if she won't talk to ya, ...hey you did your best right? Pull the cold-shoulder on her, until she has to talk to ya. Other than that, have a great weekend at home and decompress... veggin' out is always fun...

I can't speak from personal experience about dorm life because I was already living on my own in my own place when I went to college. However, I concur with the "let it be" suggestion if the roomie isn't stealing or doing anything else blatantly illegal. One never really knows what's going on in the mind of a stranger, even in close quarters. You haven't lived until you've shared a barracks with a guy who slept with a knife and a loaded gun under his pillow. Needless to say, I gave this guy a wide berth. A very wide berth.

I would just like to do the "Happy Dance" for a while, because a really nice person from this forum sent me a copy of the S 2 episodes CHERRY RED and SUITE SORROW and now I see why every one was saying how much season 2 ROCKS!
CHERRY RED was increadible and had wonderful examples of why Goren is as good as he his. LOVED the scene in the interrogation room with themodle toys, and the father and son turn on each other. *wheew*
and SUITE SORROW, at the end, when the daughter kills the father...and Bobby is in utter anguish over not seeing it sooner...Awesome!
See, now that is why I LUV this board, cause nice CI fans help out other "season 2 challeged" CI fans!
BIG smoochies! Mel

It's not just you. It seems like people get a little testy in February for some reason. Don't worry, things will get back to normal

It's not just you, Sirenna. Unfortunately, people in general do not like change. I think D'Onofrio's illness and the fact that Dick Wolf brought back Chris Noth brought up a lot of strong emotions in people, positive and negative. When that happens, you get bad vibes reverberating on boards. As with any waves, they get smaller and smaller as time passes and life goes on. We now have Captain Jethro on the bridge to help take the helm when the waters get rough, so we should have smoother sailing from now on...........
I just finished a midterm and I look forward to SPRING BRREAK in 2 weeks. Yippee!

Yes, I agree with Dom, there's been a lot of changes, and we've had some new people (not a bad thing, but contributing to the changes). I have a theory too, that February is a rough month. Good thing it's short. (g)
I have to tell everyone, though, the vibes here are nothing like what's been going on on the MONK boards. This is calm and civilized compared to that.

Yea, there has been some weird vibes lately, but I agree with Pat (re: changes in the show and all)...Feb is short, it'll pass. Hey, we get a new episode tomorrow! SEX CLUB...yipee!

Yes, and the new episode is shown an hour earlier at my EST time zone; heads up to all others.

No, MelTex, you would have recorded the first hour of the SNL special on its first 5 years. And thank you, Metella, for the reminder. 8:00 on NBC. And later on CTV at 10:00.

Yea I just read the TV paper and saw the SNL special program. Actually, I may watch some of it after CI, since a lot of the original SNL skits were from before my time...I'd like to see to old cast. Funny stuff from what I've heard.
