Apartment Life #380

 

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 have gone on in and around my apartment complex and in my neighborhood in the past 26 years that I'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 26 years here in a weekly blog post.

A couple of weeks ago I saw a homeless man out by the garbage can when I was taking the garbage out. He was bent over a little and was doing something to his pants. I didn't really look too closely at what he was doing until I realized what he was doing and then I was just shocked because he had a large hole in his pants right below the zipper and all of his dangly bits were hanging out the hole. He had a string or ribbon or something and he was vigorously wrapping it around his genitals. (I'm trying to use wording that won't get me flagged/banned whatever). I walked up to the trash can because at this point I was committed and wasn't going to turn tail and run away like a girl. lol 

He stood up straight, everything sticking out the hole in his pants, and he asks me if there's anything in my 2 garbage bags that's worth salvaging. I looked him in the eyes (Because I'm trying not to look anywhere else) and just said no, it's all trash. He said thanks, saves me from having to look through it and then he went back to tying/wrapping whatever it was he had around his genitals. I just turned around and walked back to my apartment. Was he high? Probably.

On Sunday I was out at 8PM with Falcor and called my daughter and told her she should come outside because there was a cloud of Dragonfly's flying around me and there were about a dozen bats flying higher in the sky above them. She came out and some of the dragonfly's and bats had already left but there was still a bunch of them out there. So we just stood there watching them. lol I've never seen that many dragonfly's in one place before. I was kinda cool.

On Wednesday my neighbor must have called the ambulance for himself because I saw him slowly walking with a paramedic out to the ambulance and he went to the ER. Hopefully he's alright, because I haven't seen him since.

Thursday night around 9PM I heard several gunshots and they sounded like they came from the same idiot who always shoots his gun off at night across the street. Within a few minutes, the police were here patrolling around, parked at the end of my street and in the alley across the street. They found nothing and left. 

The high this week was 105F/40C

The low this week was 78F/25C

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