Well, the vernacular "roomies" works for me but one of them prefers the more classy-sounding "flatmates." I might have to compromise with "flatties." ;-)
We're planning our first of (hopefully monthly) parties...with alternating trepidation and excitement. Communication (among comm majors!) has had its tentative moments but I have no doubt we're going to pull it all together and have a smashing year. :-)
Flatties?!? Hmmm, that doesn't sound so appetizing!:)
