Hobbit House Neighbor News

The loud, immature neighbors are supposed to be moving...I just assumed that they had to be out by tonight, but since they didn't even start moving until last night, I have no idea if they will really be gone by the 1st or not. Obviously, they are not planning to clean...and to tell you the truth, I am hoping that it takes them a while to rent that place. It would be great to be neighbor free for a while.

The only reason I even know any of this is that they came over a few weeks ago to let me know they were having a party on the following Saturday and it would be their last since they were moving. They gave me a card with a phone number if the noise got too loud. They actually (the three I met of the five total that live over there) seemed pretty nice and I really thought that perhaps they would hear when I told them that the only time I can really hear them is when they are outside on the balcony or in the backyard area...hint, hint, hint. Turns out, the party ended pretty early because they started drinking about 2pm and by 10:30pm there was some kind of brawl and everyone cleared out. It was normal noise levels after that (which still means I had to wear earplugs to bed).

But for the last 5 nights, I have had to listen to them make noise...and not just in the evening...in fact, they are pretty quiet until 2AM in the morning and then that is when they decide to go outside to have conversations. Twice they have woken me at 4am and I have had to bang on my window or slam a door to get them to get the hint that it is time for bed. I was awake last night until 5AM because of them and I was so tempted to go over there and ring their doorbell repeatedly at 7AM but I just keep hoping that I only have a few more nights of dealing with them...please, please, please.

The place is now under property management and the rent increased...that is the reason that they are moving. I am thrilled...I am hoping the price hike will keep out other kids like them from renting it. It is a really cool house, 5 bedrooms, 3 full baths, 2 kitchens, 2400 square feet...and I am sure it doesn't look even remotely as nice as it once did on the inside because of these fools...I feel sorry for the owners. I noted the property management phone number from the ad so I have it for future reference should the new tenants be too much, however, I am hoping to move soon so it probably won't end up mattering to me one way or another.

Anyhow, hopefully this will be the last post about my bugger neighbors...

Halloween House

Okay, remember Leprechaun House? Well, now it is a Halloween House....and it is over the top. I need to take pics during the daytime but I did manage to sneak down the street tonight and get a few pics with it all lit up. I didn't get the big purple spider at the end of the front yard in, so perhaps I can do that during the day when it is more visible.

I haven't gotten the invitation in the mail yet but I am guessing that the neighbors are going to be invited like we were for the St Patty's Day bash...

Bugger Neighbors

They are at it again....noise seems to be their favorite thing to do. It is after 11pm and the city has a 10pm ordinance for noise but I have been trying to be nice with them for the past 6 months. I haven't yelled, gone over there, or even called the police yet...yet! It is a Saturday night but believe me they don't limit themselves to weekends...

I have been waiting for the next BIG party, and we know it is coming, and then the door is going to come slamming down on them...I will call the police on that party and then every single little bit of noise they make every day after. At this point, I have lived here over 6 months with no complaints against them, but I am tired of having to wear earplugs every night. It is BS and there are times when they are loud enough to get through my earplugs.

On top of all that, the next day, they are all out there rehashing how wasted they all were, spilling their secrets about how many drugs they did and who slept with who and who couldn't keep it up...I almost choked laughing when I heard that one. I am kind of looking forward to the day when the "after party" talk will center around how they all got busted and they start being a little bit more careful about what they say in public.
