Creaking!

I think I'm officially going nuts. The guy who lives above me has a creaky floor. A really creeky floor. Know what that means for me? Every time he walks across the room, I feel like biting leather.

Actually, during the day it's not bad. But I think he has this habit of waking up around 6am to go to the washroom or something. Which means I'm also promptly awake at 6am because of all the racket he makes. Take a leak man, but don't wake up my farishtas in the process!

And so, for the past week, I've been on 5-6 hours of sleep, every day. I feel like the guy in "the machinist" who hasn't slept in a year. Except my reason for not sleeping is a creaky floor and an early-morning pisser.

Even now it's 6:45 am...I've been tossing and turning for the past hour. No luck. Because, you see, now my body is tuned to this guy firing off the ol' creak alarm in the morn.

Feeling highly unamused at the moment.

LOL...yes, I feel like permanently fixing the tabbeyat of the guy upstairs. Shakir knows, but I don't think he's lead an active blog life ever since he forgot his blog's password :). Still sorry for asking if you were his brother :P

its sooooooooo annoying and then has to eat and then be petted and then he has to go out again
