It's that busy time of year, where people aren't relaxed enough to be civil.
While everyone is out freaking about the 'best' gift to buy their child to prove to the kid they're loved, Papi and I have other plans.
The Countdown. 27 days.
Personally, I'm doing a little bit of research to try to find musicians and film companies, but Papi? He's making plans for his pool.
People say, "Why do you need a pool when you're on the ocean?!?" Well, Papi wants a nice cool place to jump in without the hassle of seaweed and salty skin.
So, he contacted a company and they say they can have that thing built in 2 weeks!!! 2 weeks man!!!
I guess this means that when we get there, within 2 weeks we'll have a super duper splendid poolside relaxing area.
I don't mind the fact that my love wants to build me a hot tub as well.
That will shut my bitch of a back up in a hurry! Pain be gone, or at least lessened.
It really is paradise found, and we are so, so grateful that we can have this little haven of a better life, unlike here in the city.
27 more days of living in Our Closet and noisy neighbours, cranky stress-mobiles and drunken knobs strolling the streets yelling.
Last night, as Papi and I were trying to relax and have a quiet hang out, the floor was shaking from music. It was the same noise that woke me the night before at 3:30 a.m.
We were trying to find out where it was coming from, but couldn't pinpoint it. It was more than a little nerve racking.
Papi was wandering around outside like a madman, and I was strolling the halls.
Initially, we thought it was a band in the house behind us. I've been invited to their 'kegger' before.
Yeah. Thanks, but no thanks. I'm still enjoying my sobriety, and the hangovers I get from the pills are enough. I don't need to add alcohol to the mix.
Anyway, we couldn't find the source. Anywhere.
Until I realized that meant it was coming from beneath us.
We deduced that our sweet neighbours must have received a new stereo system.
Papi was my hero in the past, and now he asked me to be his, or he'd start popping the clonazepam because he couldn't handle the thumping anymore. He was going to pop.
Down I went in my very fancy winter pj's, with nasty tacky slippers to hit home that I was definitely in for the night and ready to sleep.
I knocked.
No answer.
I knocked again.
My sweet neighbour answered and when she opened the door, it really didn't sound like the noise could be coming from her suite!!
I asked, "Hey, SO sorry to bother you," big smile, trying to seem as nice as possible, "but did you happen to get a new stereo system?" as meekly as possible not to seem like the worst bad neighbour ever.
"Um, yeah," she said as her face looked like she was not going to enjoy what I said next.
"Ah, well, it's sorta making our floor shake, the bass is a little loud."
"Oh, ok, I'll turn off the sub-woofer."
I was so grateful they were respectful, yet felt so bad for ruining their fun.
But seriously. A sub-woofer in an apartment suite? What's the fucking point? You could never have that baby up loud enough to enjoy it's full potential!!
Dudes, you need to go get your own Casa Paraíso. You can turn it up real loud there.
Your neighbours will not be disturbed.
They're going to be too busy listening to the sound of the waves.
