Tardy for the Party



I'm tardy for the party, I know.


Life has gotten crazy over the past couple months and I've gone from blogging 5x a week to being lucky if I blog 3x a week. Yikes.

This week my excuse has been that I'm really sick and every spare minute that I'm not in the office, I'm curled up in bed sleeping. Not exactly ideal, but that's life.

I've written an 'anonymous' letter to my landlord before about the time he decided to get his fitness on by running up and down the stairs - repeatedly. Well yesterday another similar situation took place: my landlords son had a dance party, for close to 2 hours.

I get it. I love blasting music all day, everyday... But when you go home from work to try and sleep, and your ceiling is vibrating, because the music is so loud above you, it kind of puts a damper on said peaceful nap. Ironically, my solution for this issue is to blast music in my iPhone headphones so it drowns out the loud bass thumping sounds and allows me to actually get some shut eye.

While we're on the topic of being sick though - does anyone have crazy dreams while they're on sizzurp? Just me? The past few days I've been drinking cherry cough syrup - straight from the bottle - and my naps have consisted of crazy dreams on top of crazy dreams. Like inception on inception. Weird stuff, I tell you.

Since gettin sick, I haven't been able to workout. It's both good and bad... The sick side of me knows that I can't workout and I need to rest, and rest has been good. But, the health side of me is freaking out about not working out everyday. Finding that balance has definitely been a struggle and a half.
(this literally had nothing to do with my post)

Annnnd now that I've completely rambled about nothing, I'll let you all return to your regularly scheduled programming.

Now I want to listen to Tardy for the Party. And yes, I always have random dreams on cold meds. I mean, my dreams are f-ed up in the first place (my husband thinks I'm insane) and meds intensify that.

I feel your pain on apartment life. My neighbor downstairs likes to watch war movies at all hours of the day and night. I have lost count of how many times I have been awoken in the middle night because it sounds like he is watching Saving Private Ryan.

I've had landlords like that in the past. I feel for you, girl! Hope you feel better soon. Oh and yes, I do get the craziest dreams on that stuff too. :)

Ugh. That is the worst thing about living in an apartment... having inconsiderate neighbors. We used to have neighbors that had LOUD sex. Like, LOUD. It was DISGUSTING. I called management, everything. Finally I left an "anonymous" note on their door telling them "STFU, no one wants to hear you BANG!" Luckily it stopped and they moved shortly after. :) haha
