The Vent Part Quatre

[The_Dude 1,142]

My cousin just moved outside of L.A. to a city called Calabasas. It's still a suburban city, but it is in the foothills, so there are precautions you have to take if you have pets, or small children. My cousin has 2 cats, both of whom were outside cats before the move. My cousin cleared all the brush away from her backyard, and kept her cats indoors during the evening. The two cats were just diagnosed with feline leukemia. Turns out they didn't need to worry so much about mountain lions or coyotes so much as feral cats I hope they euthenize the feral cats.

Mathew is getting really depressed that he can't find a job. He's applied for over 10 in the last month and hasn't gotten called on any of them. He's very qualified, has all of his degrees, and even held a NATO Security Clearance in Canada. CAE begged him to stay and work for them when he left and now he can't even get a nibble. It just really, really frustrates me that there's nothing I can do to make it better.

F you, job market.

I used the long-winded "I'm applying for entry as a permanent resident with a CR1 visa...." As the officer's eyes glazed over he just took my passport and directed me to secondary.

Today is my sleeping-in day and I have been up since 5:00.

[Kimbear 53]

Just once i'd like to have a normal UNINTERUPTED night of sleep and be able to sleep in on a weekend!

i hate my fracking neighbours. its bad enough they wake us up every damn day around 4 am and make a racket til 6am but for FRACK SAKES do you need to do that on a FRACKING Saturday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i have not had one night of solid sleep in over a month!

[Hugglebuggles 60]

Never heard anyone say "Frack" before! That sucks Kim. Do you live in an apartment? Have you ever considered banging on the walls and yelling like a 4 year old?

I hate cleaning! Of course my husband would do anything to find a way to not help! He's working on a Saturday... and irrational me is convinced this is because he doesn't want to help

Well, I think it's time for a lesson in roomate/neighbor revenge. Your upstairs neighbors are clearly self-absorbed and don't really care. You state that you've spoken with the apartment manager, and or the people upstairs? If you haven't, here is a very passive aggressive solution. Take the subwoofer to your computer, and duct tape it to the ceiling (below their bedroom). Turn the bass all the way up, and when you go to sleep, play music. You don't have to play it loud for the thumping to be audible through the ceiling. I would make sure that the subwoofer is just below their bedroom too.

Do your apartments have like a screen or security door? If not, here is a good payback. Get the 2 (or 3 litre) bottle of coke, pepsi, or strawberry or grape soda. Open the bottle, and tip it up against the door (into the corner on the side the door opens up from). They will be pleasantly surprised when they go to work the next morning.
