How sad is this… We have a smoker above our new bedroom in our new apartment. Brian is now over at the new apartment moving all of our clothes, bed, and other stuff out of the bedroom and into another part of the apartment. Geez. These Ohioans are absolutely disgusting. They are walking smokestacks!

We are moving to a new 3 bedroom apartment today. The smoke smell was too much to take. Fun…moving in 20 degree weather.

Gross. The apartment currently smells like cigarette smoke. We had to close all of the windows because of the single man’s wafting cigarette smoke apartment smells. Brian just went out to check on our cinderblock and found that someone kicked or threw it onto the sidewalk and shattered it. Then, the person put the biggest chunk back in the door leaving sharp pieces of concrete colored shards lying on the sidewalk. I would like to present the single man with the pieces and tell him to dispose of them but Brian says that would be bad since they are all drunk. They come in and out of the apartment and they are always drunk. If it was the Old West, I would think the guy was running a saloon. Poo on the neighbor guy. Poo on his friends. With any luck, his friend who kicked the cinderblock has hurt his foot.

We had our meeting with the apartment complex management yesterday. They basically said we could keep opening the door with the cinderblock. I compromised saying that we would partially open the door so no weird animals (rats, stray cats, raccoons, etc.) would get in. They said that sounded great and did not care about the few ladybugs coming inside. They said they would talk to Fatty McUgly and make sure that she would stop harassing us. All was well until she started stealing cinderblocks again and someone left a note on the main door to outside saying, “Please don’t let the bugs in.” We certainly did not post a note saying, “Please don’t let the stink out.” on the single man’s door, although, we would have liked to do that… In addition, the person we suspect that left the latest note lives on the fourth floor and we live on the first floor. They don’t even use this door to do anything except get mail. These people are passive-aggressive idiots. In addition, these people don’t even seem to realize that the “bugs” which are actually ladybugs, specifically, Asian Lady Beetles, help to keep the wheat in Ohio from being ruined by Aphids. The ladybugs can only survive by being indoors during the winter and then emerging in the spring. Then, they will be able to prey on aphids and control the aphid population. The ladybugs cannot even breed or reproduce indoors so it is not as though millions of them will be swarming about the building in May. These people are so disconnected from nature that they cannot possibly see that some insects are actually helpful and help to feed them and the 100 lb. Toddler they are raising along with the other 18 kids they have. Again, they are ignorant idiots.

A funny thing happened to Brian this morning… He was going to school early, before 7 AM, and he walked to the bus stop. While walking, he saw Fatty McUgly was going to take the bus as well. He saw her go behind a dumpster and he walked past her waiting for the bus. He looked back and she was hiding out behind a tree watching him. This woman is our parents age and she’s practically stalking Brian… So, he gets on the bus and looks out the window to see her emerge from behind the tree (with her 200 lb. handbag and 400 lb. shopping bag - she looks like a bag lady). Then she walks up to the bus stop to wait for the next bus, which would be there in about 15 minutes. Why on earth would someone wait an extra 15 minutes for a bus in the cold Ohio morning just so they could hide behind a tree and stalk a man? What a nutcase.

The woman upstairs, Fatty McUgly, has stooped to new low levels. This time, she left a 3″x5″ index card taped to the cinderblock that props the door open saying:

“THANKS FOR THE JAPANESE BEETLE INFESTATION
DON’T BRICK THE DOOR
THANK YOU”

She is an idiot. The building has no Japanese Beetles and to my knowledge Japanese Beetles are not even outside of the Ohio River Valley because it is too cold. I have also never seen a Japanese Beetle around here. The only thing in the building is a handful of ladybugs and it is hardly an “infestation.” In addition, we used a cinderblock to hold open the door not a brick. Idiot.

Our hall stinks because of the single man next door. He is a stinky smoker that has smelly friends and they stink up the hall. Fortunately, we have a door right next to our hallway so we can just prop it open to air out the hall. Otherwise, it gets stale, stinky, and smells like smoke. We started propping the door open with a small rock. Someone took the rock. So, we started propping the door open with bricks (about 8 of them) and someone stole all 8 of the bricks. We decided at that point we would start putting out cinder blocks. So, now over 4 cinder blocks have been kicked onto the sidewalk and then were stolen. As I was sitting at the computer today, I heard a scraping noise (like a cinder block hitting the sidewalk) so I told Brian. He ran out into the mailbox area and finally had a confrontation with the culprit. She is this awful Ohioany woman that lives in our building. She is mean and nasty to everyone for no reason. She has always given us dirty looks (and I am sure anyone else) and she stares at people. She is probably in her late fifties (but she looks like she is 400 years old), always wears brown, and is the most drab looking creature we have ever seen. She has that awful Midwestern nasal voice and is just the quintessential post office employee. Brian thinks she works at the BMV (BUCKEYE Motor Vehicles) ;). After weeks of trying to figure out just who has been closing one of the doors to our building we finally know. Brian asked her if she had been the one kicking the cinderblocks onto the sidewalk and she said yes. So he asked why and told her how the hall stinks because of the single man’s cigarette smoke. She turned her back to him and walked up the stairs and said, “Take it up with the management.” while he was still talking. Rude. I will not repeat what colorful names he called her but he was fuming mad. Before she walked away she said that it made the building cold. We live on the first floor where the door is and she lives on the floor above. I highly doubt that the cold air goes up the stairway and then moves all the way over to her apartment. In addition, she was kicking and stealing bricks, rocks, and cinderblocks long before it got colder here. She was doing it when it was 80+ degrees! She is full of poo so Brian is going to report her to the management. Yay. We really feel sorry for her because she is such a mean-spirited, rude, passive-aggressive, thief.

It is ironically convenient that she is stealing our cinder blocks since we needed to toss them out anyway…

Apparently, we have a smoker in the building. We now have to keep our kitchen window closed most of the time because of this smoker. The smoke wafts into our kitchen window and makes the apartment smell like cigarette smoke. It is absolutely disgusting. We even cooked our dinner without opening the window which would normally allow the heat from the stove escape. When we finally sat down to eat we opened the window and not even one minute went by before more nasty smoke wafted inside our window. I wonder if we can report someone for being a smoker? …that would be nice.

Strangely enough, the children next door have become much more quiet. This has happened since we returned from vacation. We think someone must have reported them for being loud… In fact, I have not heard a peep from them in a day or two. Yay!
