ARPEGGIOS. ARPEGGIOS ALL DAY.
Playing arpeggios is so soothing. Loving my magical new instrument. I'm so glad I finally decided to take the leap. It was the right time. All the alcoholics have fucked off, so I have time and energy to practice now.
It also helps drown out my neighbor's new 24-hour noise downstairs. He started using some loud machine sunrise till past midnight. I think he never sleeps, because I put on noise-canceling headphones at bedtime, and when I take them off in the morning, the noise is happening, as if it never stopped. Maybe he's lost it?
My pets are gonna lose it pretty soon too, so I reported it to management. He's the only neighbor like this. Years ago he harassed me obsessively showing up at my door and taping notes to it, accusing me of having sex loudly, but it turned out he was just hearing seagulls and made a complete ass of himself. I wasn't sexually active, but he was certain that the sound of the birds was the sound of my sex moans. He kept including his phone number and email and kept telling me to contact him. Maybe he had some fantasy involving me. He's weird.
But it's okay because it makes me practice my beautiful new instrument more. What should I name her?
Update: Turns out that noise is being heard by my entire building, and no one knows what exactly it is, except that it's a building malfunction. And we all get to hear 24 hr noise till monday because that's the earliest maintenance can come look at it. All my neighbors are pissed right now.
