God damn my roomie just pissed me off "Professionally speaking"

[HEyHEY]

I'm listening to the police scanner...there's an explosion, police chase helicopters... all that.
I phone her up to share the info and hope she'll be going out becaus eI can't leave...

Her answer "I just got off work."

[Rabrrrrrr]

1. I don't get it

Does your roomie work for the same news place you're at?

[HEyHEY]

5. Nope - she works at a paper

I'm radio with 17 minutes until me next newscast..so I can't leave

[Rabrrrrrr]

8. Ah, okay - so she's giving up a bitchin' scoop even though she's

apparently a "news" person.

Well, perhaps she had a shitty day.

And in the meantime, you're chomping at the bit to be there to see what's happening, and you can't go anywhere. That sucks!!
