Why would people think it is okay to drum loudly from the park in a residential neighborhood on a Sunday night?! I think it is totally inconsiderate. I can hear this rhythmic drumming in every corner of my apartment. I am all for primal expression but not when I have to get up at 5am and when I want some peace and quiet in my house. This is coming right through my window.

So I call the non-emergency number and I tell the cop what is going on. I ask about noise ordinances and he says, "If it is loud enough that it is bothering you, then it is a problem." So thank goodness. IT IS LOUD. They are sending someone out to tell them to stop.

This is the city and that park is surrounded in a quadrangle by residential homes and apartments. I consider this noise pollution.

I want a vacation somewhere quiet. Up by a mountain lake. The city is so noisy. I want quiet and to hear the trees move and the night sounds of the crickets and the critters moving. This noise is driving me crazy.

I bought myself a machine that plays natural sounds and ocean sounds and what not to drown out the background noises around here but I tell you. I need to go somewhere quiet. I used to spend summers at our camp in Maine and I remember what that was like. Ocean sounds, forest and woods. Natural sounds.

This noise pollution is stressing me out.
