I am noisy. As hell.
(And yes, as I write this, I am currently playing my latest musical obsession--BOSSA NOVA--at 3:25 in the morning. My neighbors are saints, I tell you...)
Moving furniture at odd hours of the night.
Getting the urge to hammer something into the wall just before midnight.
Loud music.
Burning various things (walls, curtains... all by mistake, of course.)
That's me.
I've only had one neighbor who was noisier than me. In Ohio. Eastern European accent. Older guy. Lived alone. Liked to give me random cd's. (introduced me to Kitaro, so I can't complain) and give me unwrapped, uncovered dishes from his home country on gorgeous china.
... Oh yeah, and repeatedly ask me for dates, even in the presence of others.
I had to finally beg a male friend to kiss me passionately in the parking lot as he watched us from his window.
After that, there were no more requests for 'the disco'. I'm not sure if it was the kiss or the fact that some time after that, he was arrested in a bizarre 'domestic incident'.
Either way, his eventual eviction meant I could recall my crown as the noisiest neighbor. And I realized something about myself...
'Tis better to be the noisy one and potentially piss off others than to be pissed off by someone else, No?

I am soooo noisey. One day I am going to get into a lot of trouble for asking to many questions.
You wrote noisey,sorry. I generally don't make a lot of noise.
That's one thing I secretly miss about urban apartment living: Wacky, noisy neighbors. I used to live in this studio apartment in Hyde Park, Chicago. My next door neighbor and his girlfriend had a penchant for launching into loud arguments right around midnight. These tiffs always seemed to be fueled by booze and were rife with dramatic pronouncements like, "I would bleed for you!" It was like having my own daily soap opera. Good times...
Thanks for visiting my blog. Please return real soon!
Can't stand the noise! I had to move from a large studio apt. due to my noisey, rackety neighbors. My present apt. is small but I love sleeping at night. You're going to get yours girly! As soon as you have a child you won't be up at all hours of the night banging on anything! Ha!!!!! The kid is going to keep YOU up. Pay back!

Hey Girl, I'm pretty nosy, too. I get that from my older girlfriends--all over 55 years old, who have no problems subjecting new faces to a twenty minute interview.
I learned from the best. Cut to the chase, get the info, leave no stone unturned.

"I would bleed for you!"
