Probably. But I've never called the cops on her yet in...five? years of living here. Even though there are several times we probably should have. **

It gets a little...touchy, because she upsets the dogs. She yells, they bark, she yells more, they bark more. I've worked with them to keep the barking to a minimum, because I don't want the other neighbors to complain (there's a dog behind us that barks almost constantly. The cops have been called at least once, and they thought it was our dogs barking. Luckily, the dogs and I were in Ohio when that happened. Edited to add: it was different neighbors who complained, and one of the dudes came over and apologized and said our dogs were cool. So that was nice. They moved, though.)

Anyway, it really comes down to not engaging her in any way, because I absolutely believe she would retaliate, and I'm afraid it would be in the form of hurting the dogs. She is definitely not mentally stable, and I suspect drugs are involved as well. If I had solid proof of that, I definitely would call the cops, but I don't. And even though other neighbors of ours have called the police on her, nothing ever seems to happen anyway. Recent example: most of you know the story of how we got Leia. Crazy Neighbor has four counts of animal cruelty from that little adventure. She is not supposed to own animals. She has two cats and possibly a dog. A random lady and her daughter were walking by a few weeks ago, and one of the cats was stuck or something, and crying. I happened to pull in shortly before an officer arrived, and they asked me who lived there. I gave them her name, and mentioned she had animal cruelty charges. The officer roller her eyes at me, but called into the station. I left after that, but as far as I know, nothing happened. I still see one of the cats in the window occasionally.

**(She's the reason I have the Conover Police in my phone, now that I think about it. She got into a knock-down-drag-out-screaming-break-stuff fight with her boyfriend (?) at the time, and I seriously thought she killed him. As I was dialing, they started having really loud sex.)

This is actually pretty much par for the course, and pretty tame, relatively speaking. I don't want to get into a pissing contest here, but believe me, she's awful.

Also, I posted that, what, 45 minutes ago? She's still going.

Makes our "bad neighbor" down the street look angelic.

I'd been bitching for a month about the pothole down the street that is hard to avoid if cars meet from both directions. My neighbor told me about reporting it online...

lincoln.ne.gov

which I did Monday afternoon.

Today I was gone for most of the day, but when I drove home I noticed it had been patched.

I guess it pays to direct complaints to somewhere where they might actually do some good, instead of just generally bitching.

It's nice to have responsive local government.

I like the idea of math, but that's all my brain can handle at the moment. Theory opposed to application?

Out street Ts into another street. Idiot drivers will stay in the middle of our street (which is easily wide enough for two cars with room left over), pull too far into the intersection, then start pulling forward when we have to very carefully try to turn onto our street.

Is there a thread such as; " This is how my day went" there are times I'd like to express my day without line item editing it into catagories. I will bitch later when I got more time, the list is growing like a weed due to the fertilizer

Pointless announcements might work?

It sounds like this thread is the place. ???

If you're talking about more personal--things you don't want in the open forum--announcements and complaints, contact a moderator.

Woke up at 1:30. It's 3:45, now. Took a tramadol at 21:00 because the headache was coming, and fell asleep by 22:15. It was full blown by the time I woke up, and wrong timing to try to hit it with another tab. Seven days until the Mayo Clinic appt. Never been so happy to go to a doctor before.

I got norovirus or something awful like it in Miami last week.
24 hours of explosive eruptions from both ends of my body.
That lasted 24 hours but now it's 5 days later and I still feel listless and tired.

I'm really getting sick of two factor authentication, I get it, you want me to verify I'm me, but when a phone app wants me to verify on my phone that I'm the one using my phone, it's like Smartphone Inception.

Woke up with a headache and scratchy throat. Made it 2/3 through the winter feeling good. Now, with VIP tickets for The Who on Saturday, I'm feeling like crap. This better pass quickly!

Ugh. What is with all these babies who have flat or otherwise mis-shapened heads?

I'm numb for no damned good reason...

Maybe it's me fighting off a cold...maybe it's me recovering from my vacation...maybe I'm not back on schedule & routine yet...don't know.

Damn my friends in San Diego are random...couldn't schedule anything firm...changed moment by moment.
I'm casual & flexible...but they pushed my threshold. Talk about going with the flow.

And so many people friggin' run...they were everywhere.

Final bitch...I know why I left years ago...
Still can't breath well there, even with my allergy meds (here it's only 2 weeks, there it's year round)
Wanted to claw my eyes out... (went thru 3 sets of contacts in one week)

And everyone complains about their jobs (they're all hustling for money)
...so many go to SD for the weather, there's not enough jobs for the volume...nor is there as much commitment to workers...since they're not a commodity.
In DC, there money doesn't fall far from the well...plus they commit more. (stability-wise)

So even though my friends want me there...I can't move back. (even if I fantasize about it at times)
Strange how life works...

In the case of one of my daughters, it was because she was the bottom twin and was upside down and sat on in the womb.

Ticket master is changing their corporate motto to "we got the fucking tickets, we get the fucking money".
