I've been living here for over a year now. The people across the street from me have this really ugly terrier thing. The people kitty corner have this really tiny yappy dog that cries alot. The people next door also have a small yappy dog.
Been trying to get a nap in for the last two hours.
The sleep I have gotten was me dreaming of throwing stuff at the dog across the street because it's been barking non-stop.... for over two hours. I'm awake now and thanks to a PS3 and a good sound system, I'm playing soundtracks from Istaria:COG loud enough to drown out the dog.
I usually play Rob Zombie or something simmilar, but... other computer isn't here, this one dosen't have a usb drive to hook up my music library to and oddly enough it's the only CD I found in the house. Good to try to sleep to though. I'm also thinking about starting hosting parties and being the horrible American neighbor they expect me to be. (yeah, right.)
There are no noise laws over here I've found out and I don't speak enough Japanese (plus I'm a bit of a chicken when it comes to telling an old couple rudely they need to shut thier dog up) There really is no nice way to say 'I'm sick of your dog barking at all hours'. Once one dog gets tired, another starts up, so it's really the whole block anyways. I don't understand how these people living here can stand this....
