Apartment Life #266

 
This is a weekly blog post that I'm calling Apartment Hell  Life. I've mentioned a few times some of the crazy things that go on in and around my apartment complex in the past 24 years that we've lived here and people keep telling me I should write a book. But instead of a book, I've decided to share the crazy things that have happened in and around my apartment complex in the last 24 years here in a weekly blog post. 

On Wednesday I saw several police cars drive past me and only got my camera out in time to catch this one. I think they were just patrolling but three cars went into the alley to the apartment complex that is right across the street from me and this one circled the block twice while I was out walking Falcor. I saw one police car in the alley behind my complex but he left before I could get a picture. He wasn't speeding but he was going faster than a car should be going in an alley. I've seen a lot of police driving down my street lately. Maybe that's why things have been so quiet around here. They don't even have to get out of the car. lol 

Married guy hasn't been hanging around cordless drill woman, in fact I haven't seen her in a while. But he has been letting long haired guy who is homeless and a meth head, sleep by his door. Yep, married guy lives right across from me. On Wednesday *and several other days) I watched as long haired guy (pictured) got out his meth pipe and was hitting the pipe. This dude does not care who sees him hitting the meth pipe. Yeah, sometimes he will turn his head a little or try to cover the meth pipe with his hands so I don't see it but it's pretty obvious what he's doing. Soon after he hit the pipe this morning, he passed out in front of married guy's apartment while he was working on his bike. Married guy is also taking care of long haired guy's tiny, old chihuahua which I'm glad about because it's too hot out here for a dog to be out in this heat. Married guy brings food and water out to long haired guy all the time too. I think the only thing stopping this guy from moving in to married guy's apartment is married guy's wife most likely. 

Long haired guy is a frequent visitor to drug dealers apartment even though drug dealer tried to kill long haired guy a couple of years ago. My daughter and I heard gunshots that night and then police showed up and arrested drug dealer for attempted murder of long haired guy. Long haired guy had a wound on his head like the bullet had grazed his head. I don't know if the charges were dropped or what but drug dealer got out of jail in about 3 weeks after that happened.

I get up Friday morning to take the dog out and there's two people sitting in our chairs in front of my apartment, arguing. She gets up to leave and he stands there trying to talk to me. Then she comes back and sits down again and I said, "Oh no, you both need to leave" 

She gets up and talks really fast in Meth-English. I can't understand anything she says and she leaves.

 Then he's standing there, high as hell trying to talk to me about, "He's trying to help her." 
I said, "I don't care, you need to leave." So he walks off apologizing all the way down the walkway.
 
I look up and my neighbor across from me is peeking out his window. You might know him as *Married guy* from my blog. 

The high this week was 106f/41C

So that's it for this week's Apartment Hell  Life! Be sure to come back next week for more.
