Good morning, all! My left eye feels as though I've scraped my cornea; it aches and won't stop watering. I figure I've gotten around four hours worth of slep last night, thanks to the neighbor above, whose rapid demise I am heartily wishing for. He showed up noisly somewhere between 12:30 and 1:00 am by letting his front door slam shut, which woke me, walked around for a bit on the wooden flloor in heavy shoes which reverberate like mad. At one point I heard the dog's claws tapping on the wooden floor as well. He wasn't alone, because around 1:30 am the squeaky bed began bouncing loudly, interrupted by moments where one of them would get up and walk around a bit. Around 2:00 I turned on the tv and watched the COLBERT REPORT. Around 2:15, I turned off the television. Somewhere around 2:30, i heard the first words since he came in. He asked his partner if she was "ready?", there was more compling around and some time after that they left. That might have been directed at the dog. He returned about 15-25 minutes later, and about 30 minutes after that, all was quiet. The earplugs are not working. Clearly.
So, I wanted to sleep in, but I've got the McGlinnventory, then a trip to the barber, followed by a visit to my doctor. This will be followed with a phone call to my landlord.
