I was just browsing the web listening to the Sailor Moon soundtrack on my mp3 player when I could hear screaming and shouting. I switched my music off to hear the downstairs neighbour and some guy having it out. It sounded like World War 3 was starting. All I could hear was the guy shouting obsenities at her, calling her a lesbian and threatening to shoot her dog. It was so loud, I could hear everything word for word. It died down after a bit, but now there’s banging and thumping below me. I heard our gate get kicked, so I have locked the door. I am home alone, so I am a bit shocked and startled by it all. I just hope we don’t get involved.
Wow, as I am writing this it’s started again. It seems the neighbour’s dog has fowled on the angry man’s garden. I’m so sick of this hellhole of a neighbourhood with people shouting the odds. We’re always worried something of ours will get vandalised. I can hear everything being said so clearly. I feel like reporting these people, I’m sick to death not being able to have peace and quiet. If it’s not rowing neighbours, it’s mouthy, loud kids. These neighbours had the audacity to report Sean and I because we slammed a door and had the odd shout, they are much worse. I would go down and see if the neighbour is alright, we have the same landlord. However, I don’t want to get involved and make things worse. I wish Sean was here, I am actually getting scared over this. I feel like such a weakling. Heh.

Rachael blogged about a new web application called Glogster recently. It’s a site where you can create “posters” personalised to your own requirements and show them online. You can add friends, rate other people’s “glogs” and add them as favourites. It’s so much fun, it’s quite addictive actually. I have made myself a personal glog and a wedding glog so far. These glogs remind me of scrapbooking, it’s such a useful way to make online scrapbooks, especially if you are environmentally conscious. Your glog can be based on anything you like, it’s yours to personalise. There’s some lovely glogs out there.
If you do happen to sign up, feel free to add me as a friend. Please check out my glogs, too.

Last night I went to an All Star Wrestling show with Sean and my sisters. I booked the tickets last minute seeing the show advertised in the local newspaper, the show was at the local theatre. I had low expectations of it, but decided to give it a go. We were knew former WWE wrestler Gangrel was going to be there, but were pleasantly surprised to see that Bryan Danielson was there under the “American Dragon” moniker. Danielson is known to most wrestling fans (the ones “in the know” anyway) as one of, if not the best in the business. My sister Tina was amazed he was here in our town since she is a big fan. I had heard of him and saw a match or two of his, which were good. I saw his match last night, I was very impressed. Only five of us were cheering him, nobody else knew who he was, sadly. The audience consisted of young WWE fans (marks), so they wouldn’t have known since Danielson works in the independant circuit and the promotion Ring of Honor. The guy (I can’t even remember his name) he was against was a John Cena carbon copy. He wore the same sort of bottoms and had similar moves and taunts. He was terrible, but of course everybody else was cheering him because he was from “Een-guhh-luhnd”, as he pronounced it. Got to love being a “smark” (intelligent wrestling fan), eh?
Former WWE tag-team champion Rene Dupree was also there in a tag-team match against two English lads who looked like they would be more fitting in the pop group, Blazin’ Squad. One of the lad’s trousers were obviously too small for him, so we had a “lovely” view of his undies. Sean yelled at him to pull up his trousers, everyone around us burst into laughter. Dupree was very entertaining on the microphone, it was an okay match on his part.
My sisters went backstage to meet the wreslers. I didn’t go with them, but I will next time we go. It was a good night out, I recommend it. We’ll be going next time they’re here.
