Parking spot war

Dec 28, 2004 22:34

The neighbors have another car now. That brings their total up to four cars. Three of them are in the street spaces closest to the house and one is in the garage. It's getting to the point where I don't want to drive my car anywhere because they take my spot. I left today and I watched what happened. I saw the husband run out and move his new car out of the driveway and take my spot. It was like he was waiting. When J goes to work around 6am tomorrow I have to pull the car out of the driveway and try to find a spot. Hopefully I will be lucky and the husband has commander's call at the same time. I don't know why this upsets me so much. In a week, J will be at ALS and I can have the driveway. I guess I'm just annoyed at the fact that two people feel the need to have so many cars (one of them doesn't even run)when there already isn't enough parking for two people to have two cars.

Willis' big teeth are starting to fall out and I'm finding them everywhere. It's kind of gross and I feel bad for him. It looks painful. It does explain his crabby mood and constant drooling and chewing. I have to take him to the vet in a few weeks by myself. He's too big to be on my lap while I'm driving and I'm not sure that he will sit by himself in the passenger seat or back seat. Thankfully, it is only a few blocks to drive. I made the mistake of teaching him "speak" so all he does is bark. He doesn't understand that barking all day gets him no treats. We're working on shake right now. He kind of gets it. I should probably be teaching him to stay or something useful like that.

Edit: All this shit about finding a place to park makes me want to move. I keep hoping that when J sews on Staff he will get a housing upgrade. Maybe they'll let us move into the base housing downtown. I also wish he'd hurry up and to to OTS. He only needs two more credits for his bachelor's degree. That is the only thing standing in his way. He can easily test out and not have to even open a book. It's really stupid to let the actions of other people bother me so much that I want to move, especially over something so stupid. I'm just tired of having crappy neighbors. I doubt that would change if we moved.
