Neighbors

At least once in everyone's lifetime, you're going to have a bad neighbor. In my case, I'm living it right now. I thought I had had bad neighbors before but these people take the cake. Every other day it's something new with these people. 

It all started about 3 months ago. They live next door. They're an unmarried couple, living together (which I have no problems with), probably mid-20's to early 30's and they have a baby (I'm assuming together). Well, about 3 months ago they had a VERY public, on the street screaming match at each other. I overheard some of it, because let's face it my house is about 2 feet from theirs and a volcano erupting would not have deafened this fight. The fight ended, harmony went back to the neighborhood. 

Three nights ago, starting around 12:45 a.m. another screaming match begins. This time it lasts until almost 2:30 in the morning! Now, right about now you're probably thinking why didn't someone in the neighborhood call the police. Here's why: the police would arrest at least one of them (and no one wants to see the baby get taken away), people are lazy and HELLO it was more entertaining than watching television. You could make out every word these people were saying that's how loud they were. I even remember hearing, "Your new whore can come pick up your things." Soooo.....we can assume he became a cheater (see earlier post on my ideas about cheating). 

The morning after that fight. I go outside to start my To-Do list for the day and what do I see? Spread out all over their lawn...every men's clothing items imaginable, books, cds, you name it. I'm guessing the whore didn't come pick it up.

Now, this brings up to tonight. I'm laying in bed, enjoying the great musical of Grease on tv...when I hear a screech, a tire screech to be exact. Then I proceed to hear crunching metal, as in someone beating the crap out of a car. The next noise I hear...the wood, baseball bat hitting the concrete. Again...I'm guessing the whore isn't too happy that he's still living with his still girlfriend. The noises were too entertaining. I got up from my bed and looked outside just in time to see the happy couple coming out to inspect his truck. He didn't look too happy....

I'll keep you updated on any further developments.

One great movie...


Shag: The Movie
Tonight, I watched one of my all time favorite movies...Shag! I absolutely love this movie. I've probably seen it at least 50 times. It's such a feel good movie, it always makes me laugh and smile. If you've never seen it, go check it out! The soundtrack is pretty good as well!
 
Shag, takes place in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina the summer of 1963. Four girlfriends, head down there for a fun filled weekend before "Carson" is to marry "Harlon", of course they get there and nothing goes the way it was planned. I really do love this movie. I love the fact that it takes place at Myrtle Beach and I love the fact that it's set in the 60's. If I could go back and pick where I wanted to be born, I would definitely have picked to be a teen/early 20's in the 1960's. I love the music and I just think the world/people were so much different. Love it...
 
Another reason why I love it so much is because of the character "Pudge". I see alot of myself in her. She feels that she isn't the prettiest of the bunch, but she makes up for it in personality. She's so funny and always cares for the others of the group. Her main wish for the weekend is to have fun and hopefully get some shag dancing in. By chance she meets Chip, a really intriguing guy who's headed off to Annapolis. It's so cute...(you'll have to watch it to find out what happens). I always root for her at the shag contest. By far...the best scene in the movie is the beach scene. It's so cute....boys like that are hard to find. Ok...that's my push for everyone to watch this movie. I LOVE IT!
