Note to self: kill the neighbours

Blocking out the world

Harsh subject/title but heck what else is a girl gonna do. As I’m writing this I’m sitting in bed and trying to study for my next exam which is tomorrow. It’s the middle of the day so I can understand that people can make as much noise as they want in their own homes. Sure during the day I play loud industrial music, sometimes for my own enjoyment moreso than to annoy the neighbours attached to us. Yes I know that sounds pretty mean to do to the people in the house attached to me, but quite frankly they started it. After living in a house for a few years and altering practially everything in it since they moved in, you think they’d be happy with it and stop hammering and banging. Well no they havent. HOW DO THEY HAVE WALL SPACE LEFT?????

In all fairness to the KGB spies who live next door (serious nothing else explains why they would have so many arials attached to the roof) I don’t think todays noise is down to them. Someone is getting something drilled with a big buzzing drill that is doing my head in. Perhaps its a jackhammer. Something like that.

Another big question for you. Who decides that Winter would be a great time to get some work done on the house? The coldness and rain don’t exactly allow for you to leave the windows open all day to vent the fumes of whatever and external work when it’s just going to piss rain on what you’ve just finished is asking for trouble. Though it’s not stopping the local KGB branch from varnishing upstairs around Christmas and leaving the windows open til well after nightfall with a new baby in the house.

So now I’m going to resort to my headphones and some music to block out the noise, which unfortunately doesnt help me much when I’m studying but I’ve got to do something to repress the homicidal urges.

Oh on a good note Dominion is back on a weekly basis so I’m thinking of going out on Saturday to boogie. I keep replaying the song the club was named after, it’s by Sisters of Mercy so maybe you’ve heard it before Ger. You might like the vid.
