Loud Traffic Moving up the Hill like a canyon. Every fucking morning or 9/10 morning; Sirens. Usually Ambulance but a lot of times it involved Fire Department or cops. fucking wrecks.
I'v gotten so used to them I go back to bed. but Im wide eyed right now. Have to take a package to mail off to someone.
I'm craving a Red Bull. but i want to cut back. Highway looks like shit from way up here. I have to find sideroads to get around the fucking rolling parking lot of fuckery. the first wave of Covid there were hardly any cars but people don't be given fucks now.
I use to live on main street in a really shitty part of town. Wrecks happened almost every week right outside my door. Sometimes minor wrecks but sometimes really bad wrecks. Once an ambulance was speeding through a red light with no siren on and t-boned a car that was going through a green light. I use to hear gun shots all the time and had the joy of living under a heavily visited drug dealer. I remember several times going out to my car in the morning and stepping in hooker shit or walking through a huge swarm of flies that were eating it. I'd have people knocking on my door at 2am that were cracked out trying to sell me a soaking wet rug they just carried through the rain in hopes of coming up with drug money. I watched 1,000 men pick up an HIV + prostitute that worked right out front. Rap music penetrating my ears uninvited from the street. It absolutely sucked and there is not sugar coating it.
Now I live in a much quieter part of town on the top floor of an apartment building where I never have to hear footsteps over head or deal with any of the above.
Have you though about moving?
