I've had a total of three and one half hours of sleep in the last 24 hours thanks to my freaking inconsiderate neighbours!
I live in an apartment and have lived in my apartment for 10 years. When I moved in everyone on this side of the building on my floor had lived in this building 5 years or more. Long story short, about 3 years ago they started to apply for rent increases above the set amount (and were granted them), and as a result people have moved out, and new people have moved in, and out, and in and out.
The current batch that live right next door to me, across the hall from me, and across the hall to the right of me are real winners.
The ones next to me have had band practice complete with electric guitar, keyboards and drums, fights with the full effect of doors slamming and screaming lasting 5 hours or more, and yesterday they decided to skip out on their lease and move out at 3am in the freaking morning! I got a whole 2 hours of sleep before all that noise woke me up.
Yesterday I decided to try and nap because I was so tired I was almost falling down. I was awakened after one and one half hours by the caretaker vacuuming the hallway, and a bunch of hammering. It seems that the agency wasted no time in getting the repair people into that apartment so that they can rent it out.
Now tonight I can't sleep because the butt dots across the hall are having a freaking party!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's a good thing that I'm not a violent person and realize that killing someone is really, really bad :) otherwise I'd go over there and slap some people around with a broom.
I'm so tired (sleepy) and pissed off that I could just spit, only I don't know how :(
So, someone tell me a fairy tale, or sing me a song to cheer my mood :)

able to know ourselves fully as we
are, especially the evil side of us.

angry with our critics but will take in good
heart whatever they might have to
say." - Ghandi
