Neighbors

I've posted before about how classy our neighborhood is.  But I'm getting more and more tired of one specific set of neighbors.  Our bedroom window is right next to their backyard. To give you a mental picture, they all look like they hide in the basement of their parents house playing dungeons and dragons until they smell to high hell.  At first they kept their "parties" to weekends.  Then it went to Wednesday and/or Thursday.  They usually have a bonfire that consists of a shopping cart, from who knows where, that they put over the fire with food or whatever they are eating/burning. There is always some sort of alcohol involved. They usually start around 9 or 10pm, and don't end their parties until after 1 or 2 am.  As the night progresses they get belligerent. You can usually hear lots of yelling and laughing.  Recently its gotten worse, we can hear some guy retching near the fence. Such a pleasant noise to wake up to.  They smoke and it somehow drifts over to our front porch and lingers.  Now they have thrown weed into the mix.  Jake and I will get home, walk up to our porch into what seems like a cloud of weed.  We have called the cops in the past. Jake went over to their house first (around midnight or 1) and knocked on the door to ask them if they could keep it down.  When he knocked, a little 5(maybe 4) year old girl answered the door!  Jake asked  if he could talk to her parents. She said her grandpa was sleeping. Jake didn't know what else to do but walk back to our house and wait for the cops.  We're not sure what the situation is there.  It seems like a house full of random men that live together with one woman and a little girl. All we want is to not be woken up with their laughing, yelling, barfing,  bonfires and smoking.

Enough ranting for now.
