College Roomies from Hell!!! for Saturday, February 1, 2003 [[Blue hugs Dave]] / Dave: [[thinking]] No! I'm not doing this again.

But you should have come to me first. I'd have figured a way out for both of us. / Blue: I know. I panicked. I'm sorry. / Mike: Besides, I don't mean to rain on your parade, but I actually believe Mom's got Dave's hard drive DEFRAGGED. / Blue: [[rolling her eyes]] He doesn't hate me, therefore he is brainwashed? Gimme a little credit.
College Roomies from Hell!!! for Monday, February 3, 2003 Roger: [[in pajamas]] What was all that screaming about? / Dave: [[rubbing his eyes]] Nothing. I woke up and Blue was hugging me.

I'll be seeing you. / [[Dave stirs his coffee]] / <> / [[Dave's eyes follow Blue]] / Dave: [[thinking]] What, no good-bye hug?
