[Princess10]

i agree i could have had a face to face with him, but i've tried to talk to him several times just out of politeness & he just hurries faster. plus i just think it's better for me not to have a face to face as i get heated, esp. when it comes to princess or my child. i could've just reported him to begin with but i wanted to give him a chance.
i've lived in an apt. since i moved out at 17 & have reasonable expectations. i don't expect quiet days and do expect occasional more than average noise at some time or another. it's just rude to let the door slam mainly between 11p.m. & 1a.m. & again from about 5-6a.m. i think my 13 y.o. has enough courtesy not to do that.
what i should've done was reported him about his comments last spring, but i didn't want to stir the pot as i just moved in.
if it's quiet tonight i will try to make it a point to thank him sometime soon.
as for when i leave i always leave the t.v. on the "soundscapes" channel, but she does sleep right by the door, only, & you can hear very well what's going on outside the door.
i also did not want to risk a heated confrontation since 3 guys (2 are security guards) live there & it's only me and jazz here.
