Please, I need someone to force me to sleep.
I live in an apartment and I am seriously hating on my neighbor. She has the grill out nearly every night and she and her friends park their cars at the entrance to our garages, making it difficult to get in and out of mine. I asked them to move their cars tonight. They wouldn't. I called the complex's courtesy officer. He's out of town tonight; but, will talk to them tomorrow when he returns.
In the meantime, I've been looking through the packet the apt. complex gave me when I moved in. It turns out that it's against complex rules to grill in driveways or parking areas. That's good news; I can complain to management. The better news is that there's also a document from the local fire marshal explaining that it's against city ordinance to store or use a grill in an apt. complex or within 10 feet of any apartment building. There is a fine of up to $2000 per day for any violation.
Can I just tell you how overjoyed I am?? Forget complaining to the apartment complex. That'll be Plan B. I want to cost this girl some money if I can. We'll just call it a "rude tax." I don't really give a rat's *ss that she grills out there and if she'd just be a little considerate about the parking, I wouldn't complain.
What's keeping me up is that I really want to go make copies of the document and put it on her grill and her car, which are both still sitting out in the driveway. I've stopped myself twice, so far. The first time, I only got as far as turning on the light. The second time, though, I had the jeans on and was strapping on the bra. I mean, we wouldn't want to go completely wild and go out bra-less at 2 a.m. It just isn't proper.
So, I made jammer put her jammies back on and get back into bed. But, I'm wired and excited about exacting my revenge when daylight arrives. It's best not to put the notice on her car because then she will not suspect anything or have a chance to take the grill elsewhere. Mwah ha ha!!
Ok, really. Someone make me sleep.
