So, I just spent most of the last hour pounding on the door and ringing on the doorbell, trying to wake someone up to let me in. I'd gone down into the basement to do a load of laundry, and didn't remember I'd locked her apartment door earlier. I braced myself for the million apologies I would owe them when they opened the door for me and knocked. Then I pounded. When that didn't work, I stuck my head out the outside door and pushed the buzzer. I tried it again. And again and again. I tried alternating between pounding and buzzing.
Idea! I wedged the outer door open with the neighbor's door matt and knocked on Amanda's window. I hurried to the door and pounded. I waited, but none of the creaks and cracks I thought I heard were her. I tried again. I buzzed longer and pounded harder. I tried Leslie's window and she quickly peaked her head through the blinds. I waved at her and ran to the door, knocking on it to show her where I was. My savior!
I don't think Amanda even woke up. :: laughs :: I guess I'll find out tomorrow.
