I watched LOTR1 in the background of of my desktop while working today but alas as I had windows going across in front of it regularily there were no subtitles to get me through the elvish. It almost made it a better experience as I truly had no idea what was going on at times.
Kate just dropped Sebastian off at the ferry dock with Grandma and Grandpa so that he can go on his first double night sleepover! He's gone and I am spending the day tomorrow at home with Kate and Rigby to get some work done on the house and other.
I'm looking forward to spending time alone with Rigby and learning a few things about her which have gone otherwise unseen or unknown. The small amount of actual alone time we have had with Rigby is staggeringly small and now we get a 48 hour window to try and change our attitudes. This isn't to say we've been doing everything wrong or anything like that. It's more an admittance that we have not been doing everything right. :)
Different Topic:
Our downstairs neighbour has been a long term pain in the ass and I can't stand him in so many ways. I want him kicked out and moved to somewhere else so that I can have a quality of life for my family that goes outside of beer, rap and noise. On the other hand I see him wasting his daughter's young life and not giving her the things she so desperately needs to develop and thrive, most of all sleep. I hear now about her mom over napping her (up to 7 hours) just to spite daddy. They are "divorced" and are classically using their girl as a go between for their anger and hatred of one another. It's pathetic. Recently mom (possibly after drinking) got in to an accident that totalled her car but luckily injured no one.
Kate has suggestted to his (Neighbour) current girlfriend that he petitions for the full time care of the girl and that we would then provide the daytime care for her. This would of course involve the complete compliance of him (I hope) to not be constantly drinking, cranking up the music and generally being a complete ass. I don't know where that would go from there.
On yet another hand.... I have to say as much as I want to help this guy out and more so his daughter I really feel he has had enough chances..... but where does that match me and my life? Where did I get all my chances and what if someone drew the line a long time ago?
So? I've already asked my landlord to consider these options as there is the present of what has happened. I guess I'll write about it when something happens.
