neighbors & joys of apartment life

I'm currently attempting to recover from a cold bug that hit me pretty hard (settled in my chest & quickly transformed into Bronchitis according to my Dr). Last week, I was at work for all of an hour and 15 minutes. Holiday, a couple of pre-scheduled vacation days, then I was out sick for almost all Thursday & all of Friday. Made it into the office yesterday, but I'm still hacking & coughing on a regular basis. I'm more than a little tired of it.
Thinking about whether or not I want to go home early again today. I probably will as my wonderful boss came in and said that her boss (big boss for me) would be out all afternoon and wouldn't need me around to do anything.

I tried to get to sleep early last night. I even made it into bed before 9:30. But as I was attempting to drift off to sleep I kept hearing this quiet/muffled banging noise. It took me a while to figure out what in the world it was, but I eventually decided that my new downstairs neighbor must have a drum set.
Around 10 I thumped my foot on the floor several times, and the noise stopped.
If it happens again, I'm gonna thump my foot on the floor a heck of a lot sooner.

Drums should not be allowed in apartments.

I'm feeling a distinct lack of bubbly/bounciness lately. I'm sure it's due to the cold. I'm ready for it to be done so I can get back to normal.
