Young and Stupid

It is 3:20 a.m. and I am wide awake thanks to several young and stupid neighbors. I have been awake for the last hour, having been woke up by loud banging of doors and cars loud engines. I initially got up and went to the bathroom thinking it would stop or it was a one time thing. OH, no. I could hear a girl screaming through my bathroom window and could smell cigarette smoke really strong. I peeked out Merci's bedroom window which gives us a view of our neighbors door and parking and there were cars lined up all out front. People were coming in and out banging their doors shut. It is sooo annoying! I almost called the police it was that bad. I thought it was over and went back to bed twice trying to go back to sleep. I have been sleeping really well actually and I never thought of myself as a light sleeper to begin with. We even sleep with a fan on in our room all year around to drown out outside noise and that wasn't even cutting it. Though I did not call the police this time, let me tell you that I will not hesitate the next. This is the 3rd time since we've lived here that they have had parties over there, but this was the worst by far. I told Mike that my sleep now is precious as it is, wait until a couple of weeks from now when I have a newborn waking every couple of hours to be fed. My patience then will not be so tolerable of such behavior. Fortunately for them I haven't done anything yet, but had they woke up Camden, I would have called the first time. It's very rude and inconsiderate when you live closely to other families to behave in such a way. We have all been young and stupid but you have to be considerate of others and they are not. The girls that live there ended up actually leaving themselves. They were probably heading to someone elses house to party some more. They are all college girls who share a place. I'm sure it's all a bunch of college kids having "a good time". We'll it's not going to be at the expense of my sleep anymore, that's for sure.

I've heard it said that if you can't sleep you should get up and do something rather than lay in bed tossing and turning. So, that's why I decided to come downstairs and watch TV. I then got so frustrated I had to vent. Sorry for the ramblings. :0(
