The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

So, right while I'm rating a bit, my monitor decides to go dark...it figures.

I can still see stuff, but not very well.

Usually, it takes a lot to get me riled up - I am usually mild-mannered...up to a point.



I want to strangle the 'tard upstairs, as he won't stop running and kicking walls, while shouting 'Dah dah dah' the whole time.

When I take my broom handle to the ceiling to let them know that they are being too noisy, I sometimes get more thumping and bumping - on purpose...from the parent.

I hate some of our species. I will probably laugh if the 'mom' falls over the banister one day.

So - not only am I not being politically correct with my use of the word 'tard' but I'm a meanie as well.

Sue me.

Sucks being the one downstairs. Some people are just so thoughtless and rude. Why I will never live in an apartment ever ...

This is only the 3rd apartment I've lived in. All of my previous rentals have been flats or houses.

Here's what I do when this happens, and it works like a charm if you have a security intercom system in the apartment building. Go down to the lobby, buzz the offending apartment, and when someone answers, say with your best authority voice: THIS IS THE POLICE, WE ARE RESPONDING TO THE NOISE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS APARTMENT.



The noise will cease almost immediately.

Oh noooooo. *cringes*



I had a lot of trouble with the tennants who lived above my in my old condo. They had three small children and they always got out of hand late at night. The worst part was they were those hippie type parents that didn't believe in telling a child 'no'.



They would try and reason with the kids and that just...NEVER worked. One night, me and my roommates did the same thing with a broom handle and the parents started stomping and we could hear some choice words being yelled at us. I lost my cool, marched upstairs and banged on the door. They wouldn't answer. I banged and banged for 5 mins and still, they were too chicken shit to open the door....so I screamed at their door to control their damned kids at night because they sounded like baby elephants. I also screamed at them through the door that I would call the managers the next day.



We never had problems after that. They avoided me like the plauge. :P

So, I found out that my rent is going up in April. $35 more if I renew it for another year, and $65 more if I choose the month-to-month option.

Gee...guess which one my broke ass is gonna' pick?

It's not like I can just up and leave...to a better apartment anyway.

Animal behaviorists still can't explain why cats will suddenly start running all over the place at breakneck speed.

They jump and leap onto high places, dart about everywhere, while sometimes meowing...or howling.

I haven't been here in almost two days, so thanks to those of you who left me honor during my mini hiatus.

There are many of us here who actually do believe that it is better to give than to receive...case in point:

One member here was kind enough to give me ALL of her honor from ALL of her accounts in one day...over 200 honor points.

She knows who she is, as I have already thanked her and ribbed her about it already - lol!

And now...it is my turn to give out some honor some more!

This is fun!

My beloved City by the Bay...considered one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Every ethnicity and belief is here. The cuisine is also international, with an emphasis on Chinese, Italian, Californian, and Mexican. The weather is a combination of Mediterranean warmth and Pacific Northwest cool.

A liberal, open city...also known for its quirkiness.

San Francisco is probably the only city in the country that has a newly elected sheriff of Iranian-Russian Jewish descent who just got charged with domestic battery...and a local looney who has a Wikipedia entry.

A normal winter here: Rain, with temps in the 50's range, with nights in the 40's.



This winter: There is no winter. There wasn't even a proper autumn, as many of the leaves are just now falling. The days are warm - in the 70's. I was out 2 - 3 days ago, and all I wore were light-weight sweat pants and a t-shirt.

The nights, however...have been extremely cold

(for here), dropping to the low 30's. Tonight, it may go as far as 22 in some of the local areas.

But sometimes - I like reading some of the psycho drama present. It's like looking at a bloody car wreck through one's fingers...you know it's gonna' be bad, yet you look anyway.

It's extremely rare if I leave a comment in those journals...no need to join in on the crap.

When I come up for air, I'm sometimes drained of energy...lol. I also realize that one of the reasons why I enjoy VR is because I don't have any drama here. I still like not being one of the more popular kids on the playground. Being incognito is the way to go!

Speaking of honor - again - I think that it would be cool to take honor from people you like if/when they happen to act like assholes on occasion, ie be dishonorable...just to let them know that you still love them, but they need to get their heads from their asses, ya' know? Tough love. You can always give them some honor back later on.

Plus...the honor system here is just another piece of the popularity pie.

While I've been sharing the honor among friends here, I've also given it to random people that I don't know...usually it's someone who has written something in their journal that I like. Also - they are people who are relatively new, and/or don't have many friends or honor. There is something in their 'spirit' that makes me give honor to them.

I'm not doing this to get honor back, get a high rating, etc. I just think that these random folks deserve it. That's all.

POST COMMENT

While on my way home from an errand, I came upon a beautiful gray pitbull racing about in the street. He kept going from one side of the street to the other. He almost got hit once. I noticed that the dog had a heavy length of chain wrapped around his neck...an obvious hint of dog fighting training. He came right up to me, looked and sniffed a bit, then kept on running. He was enjoying his freedom. I was hoping that he'd get it.

When his dumbfuck owner came out for him, yelling 'Sancho!' the dog was a block away.



Me: Is that your dog? He almost got hit!

Dumbfuck: Yeah - stupid dog.

Me: Dogs aren't stupid. They just need good training and affection.



Dumbfuck looked at me like I was from another planet. I just shook my head and kept on going, thinking that another of God's creatures would end up suffering for profit and a man's teeny dick.

My response in the thread:





God?

I often wonder...

And in my wondering, I sometimes become angry. To me, there is no logical reasoning for unjust suffering of any kind. Why do we need to suffer and go through hell before we 'see the light' and get redemption?

The very fact that there are child molesters, serial killers, wars, etc makes me wonder if there is a 'just loving god'. If he/she is around, he/she needs to get back to us and take care of business, instead of being an absentee landlord.

My three cents.

Bummed. Even though I had a great conversation with the manager, the college's bookstore isn't hiring any temps (It's dead with the three on staff right now, and their first day of operation is the same as mine, when I go back to my cashier job).

So - gotta' keep on looking, although there is nothing out there.

Waiting for my pharmacy technician certificate too. I still need to register with the state, and take the state exam, but how the hell can I do anything without money? Like I had explained to my vocational counselor with the program that paid for my studies...'How am I suppose to pay for the stuff, then get reimbursed by you - when I have no money to begin with?' Duh!

So - the gunfire started around 10:45 last night. Isn't this dumb shit suppose to happen at midnight, to bring in the New Year? I guess not...some wanted to jump-start the clock, I guess.

I hate this 'tradition'.

I heard a shot that sounded like a cannon, rapid-fire automatic weapons, and a whole lot of regular ol' guns. Except for my oldest cat, the others hid under the bed for about two hours. Poor kitties!

Well - at least I haven't heard of anyone in this area getting hit with a stray bullet so far.

Happy New Year.
