Sleep: You light up my life

You light up my life

By Anonymous - 06/01/2021 02:01

Today, I can’t sleep because the moon is full. No, wait, that’s actually the floodlight from the neighboring farm shining in my window. Apparently, they thought it a good idea to hook the thing up to a motion detector, so the cats and mice can play disco lights at midnight. FML

Today, I was walking down the street when I passed a construction site. All of the workers started making a fuss and whistling, etc. Naturally, I got very flustered. I stood still for a second and faced them. One yelled for me to move because I was in the way of a girl at a stop light. FML

Today, I had to take my 15-year-old son to the hospital. He'd gone out dressed as some My Little Pony character and encountered someone who'd had the same idea. They then got into a fistfight, and my son got the shit beaten out of him. I wish I'd never bred. FML

Today, I had an admissions interview at my dream college. I spent hours practicing questions and picking the perfect outfit. It was not until after the interview that I realized I'd scratched a pimple while waiting, and my forehead had been smeared with blood the entire time. FML

Today, my boyfriend and best friend decided to "help" by assembling my new front porch while I was away. Ecstatic, they displayed their handiwork. It's charming how the porch is precariously balanced, it leans in such a way that it appears it will fall over if you walk through the front door. FML

Sucks, sorry OP. You'll probably just have to start using room-darkening curtains. My husband's family member owns farmland and animals. He has to do what your neighbour did to help deter theft of equipment and predators from livestock.

when my husband and I moved into our first place in a basement apt, there was a business next door that would always leave the side entrance light on. which would shine into our bedroom because we had white curtains so we had to buy red to darken the room down

A tall fence is one solution; but that also takes more money and time! Black-curtains are not expensive and take almost no time to install. Plus they also help to moderate heat and noise too! Curtains are a great first step and OP can also pursue further actions if they choose.
