update:
I've been in for almost a week now. The ghetto is LOUD. I used to live downtown, a mile from a hospital.
The ghetto isn't loud as in sirens and cars, it's loud as in white trash doing fireworks in the middle of the street EVERY fuckign day, their filthy, junkie parents yelling at their crusty kids running around in dirty diapers. I hear fights, kids being beaten, kids chasing eachother, fucking SCREAMING.
I live in a quadplex(building wiht four apartments). Two other apartments are rented besides mine. In the upstairs 3 bedroom, is living two couples about the same age as myself(early 20s). When I was moving my shit in, they saw me take in my hookah. They immediately came downstairs and started talking to me. FUCK! They are all up in my shit. The next night, one of them said, "You're never here! You keep disappearing. Where you here last night?"
What teh fuck do you care you creepy fucks?!
So I was in my kitchen the other day and I heard someone say, "I see you." I replied, "Huh?" No one answered, figured they were talking to someone else... then I hear it again. This time, I yell, "ME?!?" "Yep, I see you." I run out of the kitchen (this kinda shit has happened before) and five minutes later it's one of the girls at my back door. "Umm, hi Mandie, Chris wants to smoke a bowl with you." "Umm, not tonight maybe tomorrow."
What the fuck, man. I am the kind of person that loves to leave my windows open all the time for fresh air and entertainment for my kitties. My brother-in-law, who lives across the parking lot, said, "Mandie, you live in the ghetto now, you can't just leave your windows open." WTF?! I don't feel safe, I have to lock shit up before I leave or go to bed. I think it's time to invest in a sexy gun.
