Grrr.

Okay see, I have an issue with people waking me up when I don't want to be up.  I have two very inconvenient neighbors.  One is old and crotchety and likes to mow his law every effing Monday.  He also likes to make compost piles on my property and tell me that it's fine because it doesn't attract any vermin. (No Negro, it is NOT fine because I don't want it on my property.  AT ALL) Then I have the Mexican next to him.

You have to understand that before these people even moved in, they put up a fence.  A bad one.  These are the people that had the builders who parked their truck in my yard and told me they thought it was okay because they thought no one was home.  When they first moved in with their ever screaming toddlers and their two big dogs, you know everyone was curious   Curiosity led to annoyance when they did the three things that neighbors generally cannot stand.

One, they put the toddlers out in the backyard to play every day and the kids screamed.  Screamed loud, screamed crying, just screamed.  And they let them scream.  Yes I know toddlers are loud but it was like someone reached into these kids and added extra volume.  I wasn't the one that called the HOA on that.

The second thing they did, was let their two big dog crap in the backyard and they never seemed to clean it up.  I get that dog crap might be a fertilizer or something and that some people feel it's their back yard and their dog why not let them crap wherever, but here's the thing.  Besides the very disgusting fact that they left their kids out in the backyard to play with all the dog crap, the whole block (Including my cul de sac which sits to their backyard) smelled like a million dogs took one very large dump daily.  As soon as you walked out of your house the smell of dog crap just smacked you in the face.  It was awful.  I'm the one who called my section 8 person on that one.  She sent the community rep out here who got out of his car and everything I complained about hit his nose. (Seriously the meeting with him didn't even take five minutes.)  He called the HOA who sent someone out to them.  They pretended they didn't speak English so they had to come back with a translator and guess what they spoke perfect effing English that time.  I don't know all of what was said but the dog crap smell stopped and honestly I haven't smelled it since and it's been about a year.

His third offense is a little more personal.  The blinds in my oldest daughter's room broke a couple months ago but I didn't really do much about it because she has a dark curtain.  Well, I was up one day in her room and happened to look out of the window and there he was in his yard looking up... WITH BINOCULARS!!!  He saw me looking and pretended to be bird watching.  I've called the cops but he claimed it wasn't him and they gave him a warning.  I gave him one too.  Let me catch you one more time and your wife will need tthe cops to make me tell them where I hid your body.

So today, some bright dumbass decided seven thirty was an EXCELLENT time to start cutting on the rest of the trees in the yard. (The previous owner had established his property with a serious of small trees.  These people had most of them cut down to make way for the fence.  Some were left) So he was using a chainsaw to bring it down.  I thought it was a weed whacker and it was the crotchety guy but no.  It was Seňor Dumbass and a chainsaw...

I can't wait to move.

I cannot wait to move.

Writing

I don't know why but the last few weeks has been an experiment in controlling my bi-polar rampages.

Those of you that know me personally know that I tend to flit from one activity to the other without much warning.  One day I'm crazy about one thing and the following week it's something so totally polar opposite.

It started with me sitting outside and looking at the houses in my neighborhood. It kicked off a desire to play the sims and build houses.  I built a kick ass neighborhood and ignored everything else for about a week and then Chefville came out with a quest and I got stuck on that.  Then farmville got interesting for about a day and then I went back to Chefville.  Then I found Sailor moon on YouTube and that took up my nights.

So now I'm stuck on writing.  Not sure how long it's going to last, but I'm going to take advantage of it as writing is the one thing I do love to do most.

So there's the best update I can give you.

Ta!
