Apartment Life #403

 

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 27 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 27 years here in a weekly blog post.

My daughter and her best friend and I had a little adventure on Monday night. We noticed Xavier's (missing guy)  apartment door open. So I grabbed my phone and tazer and headed over there and they went with me. I shouted into the apartment if anyone was in there, made sure no one was inside and then I locked the inside door but the security door you need a key to lock so I just locked the inside door and shut both of them. If the homeless had been inside I was going to tell them to leave or I was calling the police but it was empty, thankfully. *Hopefully the video plays for you guys*

You can hear my daughter's best friend who lives in my courtyard now, Say, "Oh this is nice." When she turns the bathroom light on. lol The apartment was completely redone, new paint, floors, appliances ect. 

When we got back in our apartment, my daughter joked that she had to go with me in case I got into a fight with someone. lol

The garden is no more. 

Tuesday morning, maintenance started raking up all the rocks in the courtyard. I asked one of them what they were doing and he told me they were putting plastic sheeting under the rocks so that no more weeds would grow in the courtyards. Because as you can see, there's a lot of patches of green out there. I asked if my garden was ok and he said he was told to move it all to the garbage so if I wanted to keep any of it to bring it in. But when I started bringing stuff in, he stopped me and said that they wouldn't be getting to my section today so I had until tomorrow (Wednesday) to get it all done. He said we're allowed 1-2 small plants in pots but we can't plant anything directly in the courtyard and with the plastic sheeting being put under the rocks, nothing will grow anyway. 

They put all the rocks into piles so they could shovel them up easier to lay the plastic down.

Piles of rocks. 

I also told him that this courtyard floods during the rain and if there's plastic it's going to flood more. He said it shouldn't flood too bad and then just turned around and ignored me. The Hell? I guess we'll see next time it rains. 

This is what it used to look like. Now it's just rocks.

Tuesday afternoon, I was walking Falcor past the pool courtyard and heard this woman upstairs screaming for help. I mean, she was screaming like she was being killed or something. So I called 911 and told them. She came out while I was on the phone with 911 and she was still screaming for help and the 911 operator on the phone could hear her. Then the woman started slamming her fists against the window and I'm really surprised they didn't break. 

Then she started screaming cuss words. The police got here really fast. Another woman came out of the apartment and saw me standing there and said she's mentally challenged, well that got this woman screaming all over again. Anyway, the police got here, they can sort it all out.

Here's something funny for you. 

I took this broken egg out of the container and was surprised when the egg white was purple! It took a few minutes to figure out that...

The egg whites probably picked up some of the color from sitting in the egg crate foam or pulp stock the crate is made from. Since it's dyed a dark purple/blue that has to be where the color came from. Sure had me stumped for a moment though.
