i think i'm going to have a weekly installment of something called apartment living for you all.... just so you can hear about how ridic it is.. it'll make me laugh atleast.

we're having twins!
Re: apartment living
first installment... awkward moment in the morning when you and your neighbors go to the gym at the same time.. that's not the awkward moment.. the awkwardness comes when you over hear your neighbor talk about how her butt hurts.. after i could hear them having sex last night and there was OBVIOUS smacking of something.. i'm just gonna assume it was her a$$ but who effing knows.
since this is the first one.. i'm gonna have to try to find some interesting stuff to tell you all..
Awkwaaaaaard! That's hilarious though.
We have a neighbor in the condo above us who has the craziest boyfriend. He kinda comes and goes, but when we see his Jeep in the garage we know there's sure to be a party upstairs. One night earlier this year, we could here them going at it (and it's a newer building and we don't hear neighbors unless they're REALLY loud) and then heard a big loud crash in our kitchen. Our big mirror on the kitchen wall had crashed to the floor. By some miracle it didn't break... but you can imagine how awkward it was to make small talk when we both happened to take our dogs out at the same time the next morning!

H lived here before I moved in and he would talk about being able to hear a neighbor in another building in the complex - the buildings have a courtyard type thing between them so it magnified the sound (she had her window open) :-/
I also don't like having to work out when someone else is there - the gym here is very small, like one of each machine and obviously everyone wants the treadmill, so it's awkward to walk in and then walk out if I just want to use that, ugh.

Married Bio
DH and I lived in a hotel that during the school year rented out furnished units to students. Our neighbor to the left was a drug dealer. The guy below us was a questionable slope worker (2 weeks on - 2 weeks off, tons of money) who had random roommates and women coming and going.
The walls were wood paneling....
It was noisy. We took on the theory of if you can't make them stop...join them. So just as they'd quit having sex, we'd start...and then they would start banging on our wall to be quiet.
lol!!!
H & I decided to do it the other day at like 3am before he left for work.. i tried to be quiet and thought we were.. but as we we finishing.. they started banging on the wall.. i felt HORRIBLE!
my inlaws were in socal fixing up their old house between renters...while they were there they stayed in a hotel for a week and mil complained that upstairs the guy was "exercising" all night. she said there was thumping and squeaking. she said he was very fit and must be obsessed with exercising.
h and i quietly laughed to ourselves and didn't tell her what else it could've been.

jumped ship to the new and improved nest. back to TB for baby boards.
DH and I live in a condo with a unit above us. A young single guy owns the place.
DH was expecting a package from Amazon one day. When he found a package at the door one day after work he brought it in and opened it, eagerly expecting his Amazon purchase. What he found instead was a package of various sexxy toys including some for butt fun! There were also a couple of DVDs. Utterly confused he double checked the address on the package and saw that it was addressed to our upstairs neighbor. DH quickly taped the package closed and tiptoed upstairs, and left it at neighbors door. We now cannot look at him the same!
Best sound ever: baby's heartbeat! (Heard @ 10w1d)
