small victories

so the neighbor situation has gotten nothing but worse. they wake up roughly around 9am, blaring music. apparently joey called the building manager and he told them to keep it down, dude slams his door and starts yelling out the window at the "punk ass bitch" who called on them. 11am, the radio came back on (i was in class) twice as loud, so i'm told. joey works second shift so he's trying to sleep, calls again and the manager gives him some bullshit about "as long as it's at a reasonable volume" he can't do anything. reasonable? you can hear the shit echoing off of the walls of the courtyard! he goes to work, i come home from my 9832748762317625567213 things i had to do at 7pm. radio is STILL blaring. 10 pm. still going. 12am, 1am, 2am... 4 motherfucking am, still going. we just closed the windows and called it a day.

somewhere along the line while we were sleeping it must have gone off, because at 10:30am today (i didn't have class today so i was supposed to be able to sleep in for the first time in weeks) i hear someone shouting at the top of their lungs. the more i wake up, the more i realize that it's the neighbor RAPPING ALONG TO THE MUSIC THAT IS SO LOUD THAT HE HAS TO SHOUT OVER IT TO HEAR HIMSELF!!!! there went sleeping in, after being kept up until 4am. joey's already awake and glaring at the window. we go to get... er... close... and dude starts yelling for us to shut up. WTF.

sooooo, we get up and i take him to lunch, totally forgetting that i'd intended to sleep in today.

when we get home the first thing i hear is the motherfucker shouting himself hoarse. i assume he's rapping again... oh but wait... there's a beat, but he's not going to it...

i set my alarm to go off at 12:45 so i could be up and ready to go to physical therapy today at 2. it had been going off since then, and it was 2. i turned it off and said loudly "maybe that'll teach you to wake up the whole building with your goddamn radio..." i heard a bunch of cursing and slamming shit around so i think he heard me :)

according to the building manager they have until friday to get the dog out or they're evicted. here's to hoping. if not, i'm going to make it my personal goal to get them evicted.
