I really really want to sleep with the windows open.

How is the lack of urbanity in the urban treating you?

Screw’em. Do what you want. We’re right under the flight path for the General Hospital & I never thought I would get used to something like helicopters flying over the house, but…humans are nothing if not adaptable.

The trolling nocturnal junkies piss me off with the trails of strewn garbage they leave, but they’ve become urban background noise like cats fighting or Payloaders over at the cement plant, or trains in the distance, etc…

If you wanna sleep with your window windows open, then damn well sleep with your windows open.

The sirens and STARS are a brief annoyance. The ghetto bird is hours and hours.

This was two/three blocks from our house.
My first clue was when I was trying to get off our block to get to work, & all of west bound Victoria Ave was being diverted down my street at about 7:30am.

Enjoy the Luls between things.

That was part of the crime scene starting in the alley behind the hotel, and it sprawled across Victoria to the residential area, so it completely closed Victoria Avenue both directions.
Made for an interesting commute just trying to get off my street.
