No knitting content today... just a rant. Ok, so the diagram will help explain my hatred. #1 is our apartment, specifically our living room and living room windows. #2 is the garage in the back of the neighbor's yard. Notice how close it is to our apartment. #3 is the crap pile. #4 is the other neighbors, I have no problem with them. About a month or two ago, Kevin and I noticed a lot of noise coming from the garage (#2) and since there are no curtains we looked in the windows and noticed that there are couches and a radio and lots of alcohol containers and some other probably illegal type stuff. When it is cold outside, we can hear them out there, but not too much. On the days recently when it has been nice enough to open the windows, we can hear every word of every conversation. We can hear the music and the screaming for no reason. #3 is the pile of garbage they decided to put in the corner of their yard. With our windows open the wind blows the lovely fragance of decomposing trash into our living room. Yum! Just a few minutes ago, I walked out into my back yard, which I have ever right to do and these neighbors were standing in their yard yelling and laughing with some friends (that's fine), but gave me the evil eye for being in my own yard. The past two summers at this apartment has been quiet and relaxing, and now I'm constantly annoyed and angry with these neighbors. I'm not sure how old they are, they certainly don't look old enough to drive, but where they are living is a house converted into apartments, so they have to be at least college students, which is weird because most of the places in town won't rent to college students (because of the noise, trash, etc). Yeah, so it pisses me off and I can't do anything about it.
