That's a first

My landlord told me that we're getting a new housemate tonight.

While he only gave me a couple of hours' notice that someone will be occupying the room next to mine, it remains remarkable in that this is the first out of now five new housemates of whose arrival he's informed me in advance. So I won't have to be surprised to come home and discover a stranger. Or start to get suspicious about signs of life coming from a room where previously there had been none.

Then again, it's now just three days until I move out and blow this two-bit popsicle stand.
