The Most Unfortunate of Neighbors

Sharing walls is highly overrated...especially when you have neighbors that function at the oddest hours of the day. When I saw the moving truck several weeks ago, little did I know that I would be sharing a common wall with quite possibly the most obnoxious neighbors of all time. Yes, I live next to a 30-something-year-old who thinks that this condo building is a dorm, smokes like a chimney, must be dabbling in illegal drugs, and is dating a psychopath - ahhh homeowner bliss...

After hearing the screaming matches that ensue at least three nights (or mornings rather since this takes place at 3am) per week, I am hesitant to approach my neighbor directly to complain about the serious noise violations that are being committed. People may say "be a friendly neighbor and approach them directly, surely they will be more courteous in the future"...I don't think these people remember that anybody could be packin. From my limited knowledge of this man this is what I have deduced so far...

1) He is in a seriously strained relationship with a woman that lives in IL and shows up a few nights per week in the middle of the night (at first I thought prostitute, but he is giving her his spot in the parking garage so perhaps this is a very ghetto version of Pretty Woman)
2) He barbecues around 10am
3) His vocabulary is primarily composed of: F*CK, F*CK YOU, F*CK HER, F*CK HIM - yes he formulates very primitive sentences around these words and phrases.
4) He must be a drug dealer: he works odd hours of the day, different cars show up all the time...and he is awake 20 hours per day (highly irregular - especially since I am someone that requires the fulll eight hours of sleep to function)
5) I am doing everything in my power to get him evicted.

After making several complaints to the association and the fact that they dislike "renters" in the first place, I have to hold onto the hope that its only a matter of time before he is kicked to the curb.

Alas, tomorrow is Friday and that always brings a gleeful twinkle to my eye! I live for the weekends and even though this one is supposed to be cold and rainy, I still welcome it with open arms! I see pancakes and sleeping in, in my near future.
