On Saturday mornings, I wake up before all my roommates.
If I am feeling ambitious, I go for a run. If not, I read the internet in my pajamas.


Either way, by ten, I am downstairs, making biscuits and coffee.
After the baking dishes are cleaned up, I start my day, or sometimes, I just curl up and read a book.


Saturday mornings are my favorite part of the weekend.

  3. Oh I completely agree. When I was in college, I used to revel in waking up before my roommates and just SITTING, drinking tea and eating grapefruit.

    Can't say I was ever ambitious enough to go for a run, though :)

  6. On saturdays I try to sleep in late. And then my roommate who makes biscuits and coffee wakes me up. I am sad, but i say, "Oh well!" and start my day.

    First, I eat her biscuits and drink her coffee. Then I pretend to read. Then I take a nap and catch up on the sleep I should have gotten.

    Saturday sleep was my favorite part of the week before Abbie moved in.

    Love,
    Anna

  7. On Sundays I try to get errands done, but then my roommate carelessly insists that I go out to breakfast with her. Every single week! Then she makes me go shopping for jeans! Which I needed to do! But no matter.

    I graciously entertain my roommate on Sundays.

  8. Excuse me,

    a) Sunday morning I was doing SCHOOL WORK because MY ROOMMATE WOKE ME UP AT 9:30!!!!!!!!

    b) at 12pm said roommate invites me to lunch. I graciously agree. I meet HER where SHE is.

    c) Then I want to go Bed Bath and Beyond but compromise willingly and go jean shopping for HER in Harvard Sq.

    d) I give up my dreams of fluffy comforters for her and she is ungrateful. LAME

  9. On Mondays, after a long day at work dealing with stressful bacteria, I come home to slave over a hot oven baking my roommate a birthday cake (she demanded it the instant I moved in), and she responds by complaining! About my baking!

    My roommate is ungrateful!

    Love,
    Abbie

  10. Thank you for making the birthday cake for me and my neurotic self even though the only reason I asked if you wanted to make the bday cake so many times is because I am a compassionate person and cared about you, dear Abbie. So shelve your criticism and just let me sleep in!

    PS - you are the best and I heart you.

  13. Your saturdays sound wonderful! I too contemplate going for a run or just staying in my pj's. I usually choose the latter.
