My new roommate is uber-geek without the chic, loud yet not exciting, quiet but intrusive. No, he's not all that bad, but he really doesn't fit in. And then I see that he sleeps with the light on, and I want to take it all back.

Janet, Chris and I, while previously a collective tethered only loosely by this house, now achieve a semblance of real comfort from each other's presence. Unconsciously, unmeaningly, we stand together as the occupants and look at Jason as the visitor.

I know I couldn't have expected another best friend; I know this is working out well enough; I just miss knocking on that bedroom door.
