RIP CAMERA...

I haven't posted in a longggg time. Life has not been too exciting for this girl.  I have been spending more time with my boyfriend which I love.  We were planning on going on a trip...but we decided to nix that for now and save our money (he needs to save his money for other things anyways!! Hehehe ;o)
Anywho, My boyfriend and I went out couple of weekends ago for my friend Nicole's birthday.  We were trying to get a new picture. I don't know that happened...but my camera is no longer working.  It turns on, but it doesn't go into focus.  I am sure I can get it fixed or have a warranty...but I think it's a good excuse to get a new one.  I don't really know what to look for though. My only requirement is that it has a rechargeble battery with charger.  I hate alkaline batteries!  If anyone has recommendation's for a good camera let me know! (on the less expensive side!)
I really need a camera though...I do not take a lot of pictures, but I like to have it with me in case I have any moments I want to capture.  My phone takes good pictures, but it needs to be in a well lit room.

SAD! I loved that camera. I need to also invest in a case for it too...strange things obviously happen in my purse!

Nightmare neighbors!!

I have lived at my apartment for a little over 2 year now.  I have not yet had a pleasant experience with my neighbors.  I think my first one was the worst.  She was that crotchety old lady who constantly would complain about everything.  Once I was putting together a dresser when I first moved in.  It was about 4:00 or 5:00 in the afternoon....I had to bang some nails to put the panel on the back.  She started to bang on the ceiling!!  Uhh... okay, I guess I will put my dresser together later....
Another time we got a complaint that we left our garbage out and she swore it was "leaking on her statue." Well sorry its raining so we didn't walk it to the dumpster today! She would also glare at us and look through her blinds when we would go out to our cars.  It was really bizarre.  Also, her daughter would sometimes park in our reserved parking spot. I guess my roommate had multiple issues with her too before I even moved in.  I was so happy when she moved out!



Until...

This new family moved in. They seemed nice and they had a cute little kid.  Boy, were they annoying!

One evening I was sitting on the couch (probably creeping on facebook or some blogs) and the guy started yelling some obscenities.  I heard the woman arguing too.  Umm...do I call the police? He screamed something like "DON'T! EVER! SAY! THAT! AGAIIIIINNN!!! *stomp stomp stomp* *door slams* *tires squeal*

They also has this cat that was usually outside meowing.  I almost dropped it off at the humane society once, no joke...but I couldn't catch it. 
And that cute little kid?  Running around and yelling at all hours of the night.  She left random pieces of candy and cat food outside which attracted ants.  I went through a huge bottle of ant killer because I have issues with ants. I may save that for another blog.

 They moved out after about a month which was sort of weird. Oh well.... SEE YA!!!


We recently got new neighbors again.  Its a couple.  No arguments yet, so far...
However...they have a dog. All it does is bark. Constantly. 
 I feel kind of sorry for it :o(
It's barking right now as I type.  It disrupted my Bachelorette finale watching and I was not pleased.

So that has been my neighbor experience.  I think I'm stuck with crappy neighbors until I get a house.  The problem is, Nick and I want to live in a condo when we get our first house.  Hopefully the annoying neighbors stay away!  Anyone else have nightmare neighbors?


Have a great weekend!
