Lousy Mother Thumper

Tweet

I have sleeping issues, so when I manage to get to sleep at a reasonable hour (such as some time before 3 AM), especially when I have to go to work the next morning, I appreciate it dearly. I keep my phones turned off because I was awakened one too many times at 2 AM by a wrong number. (SERIOUSLY people? Calling anyone other than 911 or a cab at 2 AM????) Last night/this morning, about 1:15 AM, someone parked in front of a neighbor's house. With their stereo going at full thump. It jarred me out of bed (not to mention a few pictures off the wall). This wasn't something that you had to listen very closely to hear. No, this was wake-the-dead loud. And it continued for ten stinking minutes. Okay, I'm old. I realize that. I completely understand that the past two generations haven't been taught anything vaguely resembling manners. But, sheesh! You know, you have to deliberately work at being that rude. So my next two hours were spent trying to doze back off, finally managing to do so around 3:45 or so. When I got home from work I crashed hard, "napping" for nearly three hours. So to all you mother thumpers out there, how about having a little respect for the people who don't want to hear what you're listening to....especially at one in the morning!!!! Here's one of the quietest songs I know, just in retaliation!
