oy!

the house next door houses two adults and two dogs. One of the adults works and is in and out on a pretty regular basis. The other adult – never (NEVER!) leaves the house. She sleeps all day and (???) all night – generally with the music cranked up so loud it vibrates through the ground and through our house – of course our bedroom faces the room where she houses all of her music equipment.

Her sleeping arrangements do not bother my husband – because he works at night and tries to sleep during the daylight hours. It is ME who cannot sleep!

Add to that the dog run they built between our houses – after asking if we minded, of course – but also AFTER I TOLD THEM I MINDED!!! and asked them to build it behind their house or on the other side of their house.

Instead, for their convenience, they built it between our houses so that they can open their door and shove the dogs out without having to leash them up, etc.

Very convenient for them.

Not so for me.

Right now the little yapper is yapping and the big WOOFER is woofing – ad nauseum – at NOTHING in particular –

poor moosie. I know you feel my pain. Anyone remember the Seinfeld episode where Elaine yells out of her window SHUT UPPPPPPPPPPPP! ????

I am that Elaine.

It doesn’t work any better for me than it did for her.

Wait . . . didn’t Kramer help Elaine to put out a hit on that dog?

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm – Kramer????????????

nah – of course I wouldn’t –
