242. Punctual Germs
at 1 pm, every single day, every single week, 2 bratty Germ kids come over our apartment building to storm up the stairs to our Germ neighbors above us. Who, we can hear everything they do. The kids get right on the piano and clamor away for hours, it's awful and just imagine a kid just learning to play the piano! Then they bang down the stairs and make so much noise, these people cannot keep still. Today, the grandpa (who is the leader of the rental community here, oh great!) was banging some nails in the hallway. Every single night (or I should say morning at 1:30 in the morning) he takes a piss over our head, right above our bed and I can hear him like Austin Powers in the movie. They have their German phone on the loudest possible ringer so I can hear it every time it rings. Every night their TV is on so loud, I can watch the program with them, Germ Grandpa must be hard of hearing and have insomnia!! They turn on their vibrating bed, which makes our bedroom vibrate like an earthquake, and finally goes to sleep around 2 in the morning, EVERY SINGLE MORNING. These are the same people who own an old, (and the ugliest looking dog I have ever seen, black and grey with shaggy hair, and the size of Marmaduke) ugly dog that barks and echos in the entire hall. I guess the walls are thin here, because I can hear the elevator running at 1 in the morning, which must be them as well and who knows WHAT THE HELL they do at this time, but I must give it to them that they are GERMAN PUNCTUAL!!! And that this pattern does NOT change or take a break, it's day in and day out. Exact same times, exact same patterns! So, bad piano playing, kids, barking dogs, and banging on stuff, I love the neighbors above me and you know we can't complain here, you know they can complain about the 30 inch bamboo fence in our balcony, but we have no right to complain. Oh and there's other neighbors who have wood fences on their balcony, and wood posts for their plants attached to the balcony, ugly white netting for the pigeons, ugly steel fencing covering the entire balcony, satellite dishes, clothes racks, and the tackiest outdoor decoration, but our bamboo fence is a distraction..go figure. Ok 4 more days to go...hypocrites!!
