Space rent has gone from $795
to $865 in the 5 years we’ve lived here. And that’s cheap considering that the
average 2-bedroom apartment here goes for $1400.
Since 3 teaspoons equal a
tablespoon I decided to put a teaspoon of the apple cider vinegar in three of
the 16.9 oz. water bottles I drink, but then Aly said that she put a tablespoon
in a 20 oz. bottle of strawberry sparkly water and it was okay. I like this
idea so I think I might try it.
Went out walking earlier and
even at 9 p.m., the traffic around the front gate was like OMG. It got up to 82
degrees today and we ran the AC for a little while. I waited till it had just
slipped under 70 degrees to go out. Hopefully, we won’t need the heat anymore
for a while! Anyway, I loved the various cooking smells as well as the smell of
Jasmine as I walked around.
I wish we didn’t have such
old shitty windows so we could open them at night or anytime we want to without
bugs getting in. I just couldn’t sleep with them open because the noise would
be horrendous. I might as well go sleep in the middle of the road in that case!
I’m tired of living in all places but that’s what I’ve lived in for most of my
life. Really hope the next place, wherever it is, is more modern as well as
quieter, but I highly doubt I’m going to get the last one. Not too many places
these days are quiet. It’s after 11 p.m. and I can hear all kinds of things on
the freeway and in the sky. Yet that’s mild compared to when the traffic is
heavy in the park, as well as the near-daily landscaping and projects.
I don’t expect to have the
energy to work out tomorrow night because I’m on nights right now and I’m sure
the trash and recycle pickups are going to wake me up regularly along with
whatever other thunderously loud vehicles go through here. I managed to sleep
okay today but there was definitely a ton of loud traffic. Tomorrow I will
probably just do laundry and maybe clean the kitchen.
This weekend we’re going to
have a little meeting and decide when to move. We may not know the exact year
but we should have a better idea. Do we do stupid and risky and go sooner? Or
do we play it safe and smart and wait another five years or so? We’ll have to
lay out all the pros and cons and make a decision. Damn, it’s a tough one,
though!
No planes flying overhead
now. Right now all I hear is the freeway, but hey, it is nighttime and I’m only
about five or six hundred feet away from it. The only thing that sucks about
warmer weather at night is that you hear the fucking car stereos blasting down
it beginning at around 6 p.m. till around 2 a.m. It’s just fucking ridiculous
the way we let so much shit go on in the world that shouldn’t and we don’t let
things be that should be left alone. I still can’t believe how often I hear
things in the daytime here. Landscaping was only done once a week or less and
all the other places I ever lived, and I didn’t hear a fraction of the projects
I hear going on here.
For dreams, I remember
something about moving from someplace that didn’t look anything like this. I
was doing a final walk-through of it and was in a room with a pullstring to a
light in the center of it.
The next dream was really
weird. I guess he and I were doing something illegal online and he kept telling
me, “Shield me.” That meant I had to hold some strange object close to him so
he wouldn’t get caught doing whatever he was doing, LOL. Then I was trying to
hide some files or destroy them.
