My girl baby and I are all crammed in a one bedroom apartment though we've been looking for other apartments or houses for rent in the past few weeks.
Though we'd like to upgrade to a 2 bedroom obviously, its not excatly the space that bothers us. Its the stupid fucking annoying neighbors.
Heres a doozy story from the other night:
Around 8:30 Tuesday night, I was in the rocking chair feeding the little one and he was about asleep. Out of nowhere theres a loud BOOM! that seems like it came from right outside our door. I handed the baby off to mommy, and ran outside to see what was up. A guy in the other set of apartments next to us came out at the same time also. There was smoke in the bushes and of course, it smelt like fireworks.
Being down the street from the Police Station, the cops arrived very quickly. They looked around and were about ready to leave when another one went off, it sounded like it was a block away this time. So they got in their cars and went looking for this dude.
15 minutes later, BOOM! right out in our street again. Now I'm pissed. My child has been woken up twice now. So I go outside again, and theres flaming debris in the street. The youngest cop on the force, who I went to school with shows up, and we bullshit for a few minutes. While we were talkng, another guy from the end apartments comes out and says he thinks its the asshole in the middle top apartments throwing em out his window. Nothing really came of it though. So the cop left and I went back inside....then I slipped outside real quiet like and chilled on the other side of the garage where no one could see me. Not 5 minutes later, there it is! The asshole in the top middle apartment is hanging out his window lighting a homemade concussion bomb.
So ol BB here called the cops and informed them. While I hate to be "that guy" you gotta take into consideration that theres only 2 apartments here out of 12 that dont have little kids in them. The asshole lighting them being one, of course.
This just isnt one of those apartment complexes that you can do that stupid shit in. Theres families here. Young families!
The cops came, again,and I told em what I saw. The asshole had left in his jeep, so the cops didnt do anything about it that night. But according to the local newspaper yesterday, he was arrested the next day on Disorderly Conduct charges and the landlord came to tell him that he's got til the end of the month to get his shit and get out (she doesnt take any shit)
We went and looked a 2 bedroom house yesterday had a nice little chat with the landlord, who as chance would have it, I know through family. 20 people had looked at it by the time we got there, and as we left, guess who shows up?? The asshole!!
Good news is, we think we've got the house. The guy called us this afternoon and asked a few more questions, and told us out of everyone that looked at it, hes considering us and another family. He also said that he wasnt sure about the other families dogs.
So hopefully Monday I'll be putting the deposit down a house!
I'm sure tired of apartments.
