The importance of finding a good housemate

AFTER last week’s paean to oddness I realise that it’s not practical for everyone to be odd and proud. I forget that I have a bit more leeway.

After all, I’m living with someone who is contractually bound to try and make a go of things for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, through times of normality and “Colm do you HAVE to make that noise with your neck?”

Many people can’t be so honest with themselves because their position is more precarious. For example, because they need to convince others to accept them as housemates.
