I was sound, and I mean SOUND asleep when our neighbors, who suck by the way, started putting off crazy fireworks. Now, don't get me wrong, I know the reason that has allowed me to bitch about this is a direct impact of Independence Day. But it wasn't Independence Day, or even the 3rd, which rolls into Independence Day and almost everyone I know has off the 4th. Nope, it was the 2nd of July. To top it off, they were using MY yard to do this. We have a 1-acre lot next to us, almost completely clear of trees and flat as flat can be. PERFECT for fireworks. OUR fireworks, not theirs.
Visualization:
They didn't ask to come over, they just started putting them off, and not until 10:15pm. And I do mean the illegal ones. Not that we won't be doing that in OUR yard tonight (starting much earlier than 10:15pm).... They faced them from the house (seen in visualization) and shot them from OUR yard towards OUR house. Now, without causing any friction with the neighbors, although I was thoroughly pissed off, I would like to send them a message to not be so rude. Particularly because there are firework remnants throughout our yard and all that fun.. I was thinking of coming home after work, cleaning up the yard and putting all of the things I pick up into their driveway. I guess that would cause friction though. *sigh* If they come over while we are putting our stuff tonight, I will jokingly (yet seriously) say "you guys are going to help clean up since you all put your stuff off in our yard last night, right??"..
Oh well, I feel better getting this out. People are rude, that's all there is to it. I'm not a morning person, let alone a wake-me-up-after-I'm-sound-asleep-with-loudness person by putting fireworks off in my own yard shooting them at my own house.
Oh well, everyone be careful with the fireworks tonight and tomorrow--- in the words of one of my clanmates "remember to light and run like hell".
