rage against the machine

a particular roommate (no names will be mentioned but it's not cow or nadiya) has become a bit violent lately. i don’t know what it is...the stress...the pollution...the heat...us? several weeks ago, cow said something and Roommate started punching her as if she was a punching bag. that was the beginning of Roommate’s rage. and then on another incident, she threw books at me while she was trying to explain an incident when she ACTUALLY threw books at someone. i don't know....but, i personally could have done without the physical demonstration. Roommate has this evil laugh that she does where she throws her head back and lets out a deep eerie cackle and then she glares at you with her big bulging eyes. it’s frightening. just today, i told her i wrote a new post on my blog and then out of the blue, she threw a punch at me along with her cackle. she didn’t actually hit me but God knows, she could have! i cowered with fear. now she thinks i’m a wimp. i’m not! i get startled easily and if i wanted, i could beat the crap out of her or anyone else for that matter. i just have a gentle demeanor and wouldn’t even hurt a fly unless it annoyed the living daylights out of me. but i have a high tolerance for annoyance...i can take in a lot of crap without exploding but once i do...it’s not a pretty sight. so just a general surgeon's warning: don’t piss me off or else be prepared to fight tharwa, muslim warrior princess!
