solarbirdone thing after another
So the assholes at the upstairs apartment at 5046 were throwing glass (it turned out to be ceramics) out the kitchen window at people on the street. So I phoned the police. They come and talk to me, then go next door.
Next door, of course, refuses to talk to them, and they can't do much of anything since nothing's going on right then.
I'm getting ready to go to bed when I notice one of them is staring at our kitchen window from theirs. And I think, "um... that's not good." So I wait up 20 minutes, lights out, to see whether they're going to do anything. When they appear to have gone to bed - and not immediately gone for the door after - I think, "okay, good."
So I go up to bed.
Oops.
Some amount of time N later - I don't think long, but I'm not sure - I'm in a light sleep and I hear... something. I don't know what. I start to wake myself up, but decide it's not the right kind of noise to be worrisome, and stay asleep.
(Yes, I do this kind of thing in my sleep. Usually, I guess right, or on the paranoid side.)
So when Paul wakes us up at 4pm because someone's thrown the north porch fire extinguisher into the kitchen garden window (it bounce off the shelf, landed outdoors - thankfully - where it discharged harmlessly, rather than heavily damaging the kitchen) ... AND someone has broken into Rebecca-gumi's apartment and stolen her laptop, I feel very upset.
I'm still upset, of course. I ... there's just so many noises. I wish I'd gone down to look at the noise. The kitchen window would have been smashed and I'd have called the police, and Rebecca would sitll have her laptop. (Maybe. I'm guessing, anyway. There'd be a chance.)
Three hours of police and cleaning later, and I'm crawling back in bed. I'm only about half here - everything else is just too tired. The glass is bad - I mean, it was everywhere.
okay, too tired, posting now.
