the white sox won the world series, it's amazing here right now.

mike is a really big white sox fan, so i'm really happy for him.

i in general like baseball and it's the only sport i understand. i have
been a white sox fan since moving to this neighborhood.

hooray!
(sister, don't read this next comment)
i was really hung over at school yesterday. maybe i'm not setting a good
example, but i'm an adult dammit! yeah it was a bad day for me though. i'm
better today.

busy bee i have to go.
xo

p.s. thanks for your advice with the neighbor! we realized we're not doing
anything wrong so she can shove it. although i'm considering the training
snickers to jump up to the ceiling thing...

this hang out room.
the only problem is, we can't hang out in it!

we have this psychopathic upstairs neighbor who BANGS on the ceiling
anytime we make any sort of sound. when you live in an apartment building,
as anyone who ever has can back this up, you have to deal with occasional
sounds from your neighbors. like, i don't know, their listening to music
at the same volume as SPEECH. everytime i play any sort of music at any
volume, this crazy wingbat bangs on the floor. it's so rude.

pop quiz, hotshot...
the correct way to deal with a neighbor making sound is:
A) ignore it. deal with it. get over yourself, princess.
B) ask the neighbor to be quiet.
C) turn your music up loudly.
D) bang on the floor as loud as you can and, in general, be a total and
complete bitch about everything you possibly can.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

i hate her. i literally hate her.

advice?
do you think i should ignore her banging and continue to listen to my
music as loud as i want to? (it's not even loud by the way)

oh i left this out: she walks around constantly and she must weigh, i
don't know 3000 pounds based on the amount of squeaking and creaking going
on up there.

also she plays her crappy avante garde bullshit classical music at like
30000 decibels until i can hear every single offbeat note of it. all day
long. i never bang on the ceiling. maybe i will start doing that.

well, hello there beardy! (weekend edition)

well hello there, beardy!



i love wikipedia.

so
so

mike and i had separated the living room from the kitchen with these
pieces of wood that were fairly high (they were hard to step over) to keep
snickers in the living room. that worked for a few weeks until she figured
that she could grab the pieces of wood in her mouth and slide them over
and get into the kitchen (<---land of bunny-inappropriate crumbs).

so we decided, okay, we'll open up the kitchen to snickers. we had to
close all the doors and put a baby gate up in front of the hallway leading
to the bathroom, my bikes, and all of our miscellaneous cords n crap.

well later that day i'm sitting on the couch and i realize, i can't find
snickers. i look all over and don't find her. mike comes out of the
bathroom and there she is. she JUMPED a baby gate. like silently. and
cleared it. i was kind of amused (I had noticed her running the house and
then stopping right in front of the gate like she was planning something,
but i didn't think she could get over that.). but it's annoying because
she really really can't be back there.

so i closed the curtains that lead through that hallway (it was a
decorative curtain thing). and that stopped her for like a day. but
yesterday she jumped it again, sailing clear through the curtains. i found
her in the bathroom.

so i put a piece of wood up, blocking most of the door way, and it's
taller than me. yeah she just got back there again. jeez.......

now i blocked off the whole doorway with the baby gate and two six feet
tall pieces of wood. i have to pee but i can't get back there. if she
figures out how to get back there i'm gonna freak out. and sell her to the
bunny circus.

watch them all...they're so weird.

watch episode 7. enjoy the bizarrity that is asian animation and product
merchandising. wow...

if you watch the first animation and you have a pet rabbit, you are going
to be spending a lot of time calming her down afterwards. the sound
effects freak them out.

this weekend I visited my family. i had a good time, and it was nice to get away from the city. i feel like i have jetlag today though. weird huh? i
actually took a rather lengthy nap this evening.

I'm TAing a class, a statistics class. I'm a math teacher. I knew this would happen eventually.
