OK, so as for the grim aspects of my situation as it applies to our Thanksgiving late Tuesday night/Wednesday morning, the speculative Down Syndrome neighbor above me has been typically waking up sometime around 3:00am - 3:30am and stomping, clanging around, moving furniture. Sometimes the Watchdogs can get them to be quiet, sometimes not.
The Ghetto Lady and her family is often in bed, quiet, by around 10pm, which is when I was hoping to start my cooking so that I may have everything ready by 12 midnight or so. That, then, would give us several three hours to eat and socialize. I am nervous, however, because for the last few weeks, Ghetto Lady has been a tantrum throwing tyrant and has been up at all odd hours banging into my wall and dragging furniture around. Last night she had some guest show up at her door at 1am in the morning and she and that guest banged around till about 2:00 - 2:30am.
And that's to say nothing of the Stereo Guy and how he may or may not fit in to all of this. Let's hope he does not fit in. BTW, other members of the Psychic Rosslyn Community call that guy, "The Guy with the Curly Hair and Glasses." They call Ghetto Lady, "The Older Woman with the Family," and the Down Syndrome person is called just that. Between ourselves, I'll continue to use my epitaphs for them.
You're welcome to share this with Paul so he has an accurate sense of the situation going into it. Hopefully, if we have to reschedule, we can get a night in there next week that's peaceful enough to just let us convene, eat and socialize lovingly. And remember, sometimes the Watchdogs CAN really get these ne'erdowells to calm back down. On many occasions, actually. It just depends on how riled up said ne'erdowell is. If they're really hellbent on tearing it up, that's when the Watchdogs have a tougher time. :( :( :(
