The walls in my apartment are very thin. I used to have a problem with the neighbor on the side near my bedroom. He was a 30-something that stayed still 3am playing Mortal Kombat every night. He might also have listened to Backstreet Boys loudly. He lived alone; for some reason he didn't have a girlfriend. I was so happy when I saw that he moved out. Otherwise I doubt I would been able to sufficiently prepared for my microeconomics final.
My new problem is my other neighbors on the living room side of the apartment. They are sexually active and I know all about it - their headboard shares a wall with my living room couch. I used to think after hearing the banging that someone was assembling furniture. Then I heard "other" noises that clued me in.
They do it like clockwork; every Sunday night plus a few "surprises" for me during the week...but really on the Sunday night thing - I could set my watch to it. I sort of dread that time of the week now, because I can't escape the audio...the vibrations travel through the walls even if I go to the other room. There is no escape. I hear everything. My poor virgin ears.
I think it was this Thursday that I was having a pretty heated argument with a friend on the phone. In the middle of me yelling, I suddenly hear the neighbors starting to go at it. It was very unsettling. I wanted to bang on the wall, yelling "c'mon, people...you're ruining the mood in here!!!"
Shouldn't it be the other way around?
