another new Dub ride

[Ldub]

And 'grats on the new digs. I finally broke down a few yrs ago and moved out of the apt I'd been in for 15 yrs. Was either that or learn spanish.

There's no language or pigmentation issues that exist in my situation, & I'm not implying that was the case in yours...

I do my best to get along with as many of the other of my fellow erf inhabitants as possible, without any condition other than being decent human beings...BUT. (there's ALWAYS a but...)

When the neighborhood becomes populated with societal "lower forms" that have no regard for other people in any manner, it's time to move on...

The apt nxt door to ours was rented to some young, meth addled, morons...not the first time I've had crap for neighbors, hope it's the last.

Last week I couldn't get out of my door to go to work, (11:45PM) because there was a guy passed out blocking the door. (That was fun...)

Stuff that's not nailed down has been "growing legs" around here for a while now.

There was a pit bull related mauling of a UPS guy across the street while we were in Moab this spring.

All that, in conjunction with my LL's "stellar" maintence of the property, add up to one outcome...time to go...

Really, I mean it this time...rant off...

The main reason I moved out of there was I couldnt stand one more summer of being on the top floor with just a little wall shaker a/c unit. Had to have it running full blast 24/7 to keep the bedroom below 90 deg. And 15 yrs of stereos on either side at full volume was more then enough, especially when its mexican music. I had nothing against the ppl living around me personally (other then the a**hats with the stereos). Once the complex became a part of govt assisted housing, it became mostly mexican. I got along great with most of them, as long as they spoke at least enough english that we could have a conversation.

when I moved I had 2 priorities in a new place. 1, central a/c (an HVAC tech should at least have functional a/c lol), and 2, washer/dryer hookups. No more spending all day trying to do 2 loads of laundry waiting for machines.

I'm with ya Bro...don't matter if it's mariachi or megadeth...if I can't sleep, I get awfully grumpy, & sometimes downright unpleasant to be around...

The worst is loud sex neighbors, especially when I was single and getting lucky wasn't on my monthly planner!

I'd rather some terrible free style rap battles all night than hear someone else gettin' jiggy with it when I'm in the middle of a dry spell! But now I'm married and don't have to worry about that anymore, I already know sex is off the menu!

That never really bothered me. I just pounded on the wall and they quieted down really quick LOL. I think my last apt had rice paper for walls. Could hear the neighbors just talking. Most of the time I lived there was when I was working graveyard shift and sleeping during the day so complaining about noise never went anywhere.
