So last week I talked of being inspired by Mark Twain and deciding to practice unmuted in my little apartment for a while.
...this did not work out so well this afternoon. I began to practice at about 5:00, as I usually do, warming up with my usual routine. Suddenly, the people upstairs seemed to be totally unable to handle this fact. The sounds of three or four people jumping up and down on the floor and stomping were heard, followed by what sounded like throwing books down on the ground as hard as they could. This abated for a moment, but was soon followed by what sounded like two televisions turned up all the way and a radio blaring static, followed by more stomping.
Are these people really this impatient, or am I really that bad?
I still got my hour in, as usual, but wow did they make it hard on themselves. Now instead of listening to their downstairs neighbor play some Bordogni (and very nicely, I thought), they had to listen to two televisions and a radio blaring, and probably wore out their shoes and made a mess by throwing things around their apartment. How sad.
Holy crap.
ReplyDeleteCall the super and complain. You've already been through this once, and you don't need to be harrassed when you're following the guidlines that were set out previously!
Wow...that's mature of them. I wonder what they would have said if you would have went up there and asked what their beef was. Sheesh...
