I have a question

I have these neighbors. I've mentioned them before. We share a bedroom wall. When I first moved in, they pounded on the wall like I was making copious amounts of noise. But for the past year or so, I've been hearing them having sex through the wall. It's always between 1 and 2 am, and it always wakes me up. Last night I went to bed at 10:00, but didn't fall asleep until after 12:30. At 1:30 I was woken up with the oh so familiar thump thump thump, and could only think, "wait for it...." when I heard the woman start screaming.

Now, here comes the question. Was it rude of me to wait until they were so obviously climaxing before beating on the wall? It seemed rude to do it during, but still, I don't want to be hearing this!

Mexico Trip

Please forgive me this post, and feel free to skip it!

Monday June 5

I got to the airport about 8:45 am. I was told to be there at about 9, so when the people I was going with arrived at 9:30 I was a little worried. We got on the plane around 11:00 and flew for 3 hours. We got in at 4:00 pm, and took a taxi to the resort. It probably wasn't any hotter than 85 or 90, but the humidity was sooo high.

After checking in, and changing clothes, we took the kids to the beach. They got all wet and sandy so a quick trip to the rooms to change again before dinner was in order. Monday at the resort was Mexican Feista night. We got these little clay cups on ribbons upon entering, which as we sat down, were promptly filled with tequila.

After dinner, and a few margaritas, we all went to the beach until the sun went down to watch the fireworks. Pathetic really, as there were about 4. Then, up to bed.

Tuesday June 6

We started at 10:00 with breakfast in the little shopping center. The parents then went to the grocery store to stock up, so I took the kids back to the rooms and played for a bit. The twins were supposed to nap at 2:00, but kinda freaked out that it was me putting them down instead of their mom. She finally came in, so I went and played with Jackie and Katie until dinner. Dinner was spaghetti that we cooked then ate on the balcony.

I took Jack and Katie to the beach after dinner when they got bored. I got a few good pictures of the ocean at sunset before taking the kids up to bed. The grownups all had drinks until about midnight, then I left for bed.

Wednesday June 7

I took the kids to the beach at 10:00, with their dads in tow. We played in the sand and surf for a few hours until lunch, then took off on my own for a few hours. Jenn took me to the spa to pick up my gym pass and set up my spa appointment for the next day.

I went back to the shopping center to change some money to pesos, then went and shopped. I bought a really cute outfit, a white tanktop and skirt. Then I went back to my room and changed back to my bathing suit, and read on the beach for a couple of hours.

I was back with the kids at 5, where I fed them dinner, popcorn, and got them read for bed. I went back to my room at 9:00 when parents returned.

Thursday June 8

I went to the gym at 7:30 for an hour. My spa appointment was at 10:00, so I came back and showered. At the spa, we changed into our robes and sat (naked with my employers) in the jacuzzi/whirlpool thingy until they called us for our appointments. I had a hydrating facial. Very relaxing. Afterwards, I sat in the jacuzzi/whirlpool thingy until it was about time to get dressed and take the kids.

At noon I took the kids for lunch, Max and Luke (the twins) went down for a nap, and Jack and Katie and I went to the beach to play for a bit. I brought them back to my room so I could change for dinner in the little town of Bucerias.

We took a taxi to Bucerias where we shopped a little before dinner at Meson Bay. The restaurant was open air, with a thatched roof and a sand floor. We ate until it was nearly dark, drank a HUGE margarita, and came back to bed.

Friday June 9

Pretty much the same schedule, I took the kids to the beach at 10, we all had lunch in the restaurant (me, kids, dads), I read on the beach for a couple of hours before taking the kids from 5:00-9:00, then went to bed.

Saturday June 10

We were supposed to take the kids to the sports club this morning, but the twins dad put up such a fuss about it, that it took us 1 1/2 hours to decide to just go the pool instead. We only had an hour or so to play this time before lunch. After I fed the kids, I had lunch (alone) in the restaurant. We all went into Puerto Vallarta for shopping in a flea market, where I bought a (SQUEE!) Louis Vuitton purse for 600 pesos. Then we hit a pharmacy where I got 100 pills of amoxicillan for 250 pesos. We all had dinner at a seafood place called Roberto's for dinner.

Sunday June 11

We took the kids to the sports club in the morning where there was a little wading pool and a play room. We had lunch there and stayed until about 2:30. I tried to read on the beach, but there was too many big groups of loud people. I came back up after an hour or so. I had the kids for 3 hours in the evening. Outside my room there was a thing going on on the stage, so the kids and I sat out for a while and watched a seal doing tricks and some Mexican dancers. Jenn and I went down to the beach for a drink before bed.

Monday June 12

Since the parents needed to pack, I took the kids to the pool for an hour in the morning. We came back up at 11:30, changed, checked out and went down to McDonald's for lunch. We had a couple of hours before we had to go to the airport, so we just hung out at the shopping center. Eventually we got a cab to the airport, then hung around the airport for 2 hours before the flight. When we were about to board, I was the random person pulled aside for screening. The flight was 3 hours, and we got through with customs about 7:00. Since Jeannie flaked out on a ride home, I took a cab.

End of vacation. I tried to go to work today, but my boss actually sent me home! So Kathy, I took the day off after all!
