Brilliant Thinking (dripping with sarcasm)

So, I'm in bed sleeping. And what comes along at 10 to 4 this morning, to wake me up? Oh, yeah, a leafblower. Right outside my bedroom window. Did it not occur to any of the highly intelligent and well-paid (okay, over-paid) people in the administration that people who live here might be sleeping?

Some 1400 acres of grounds to keep, and they have to do this space in the middle of the night? You know, I try to be okay with this sort of thing. I really do. I'm not happy about being awoken by lawnmowers at 8 on a Wednesday, or by the lovely new construction right across the street that is apparently going to be starting at 7 a.m., but okay, things happen and we have to deal.

But leafblowers at 4 in the morning? Yeah, no, sorry, *really* not okay. No ifs, ands, or buts about it, that's just downright rude, and uncalled for. I sent a pissy email...hope it doesn't bite me in the ass!
