The downstairs neighbor has been listening to Coldplay nonstop for two days. I don’t even know who lives down there, but now I’d guess it’s a guy in his mid-20s who’s just been dumped. And right before Christmas. How sad. I feel like I should bring him some cookies or a six-pack or something. Like I said, I don’t actually know who lives down there. Could be anybody. But two days of Coldplay is a cry for help, in any case. If you ever hear me playing Coldplay more frequently than once in a four-month period, bring me some cookies AND a six-pack.
Who am I?

Megan, why didn’t you go to your neighbour to ask him don’t listen to music so loudly?

Heh. Word on that. If I wanted to listen to whiny-ass britpop, I’d go with radiohead, not imitators.

Jul007 — Because it doesn’t bother me, that’s why. I just think it’s kind of amusing. It’s not that loud really, just loud enough to hear through the floor when it’s quiet in the flat. Anyway, sometimes we listen to music loudly too. We’re a live-and-let-live kind of building.
