Unfortunate

My neighbors have taken up Djembe drumming, or two squirrels are playing hide and seek in the rain gutter outside my bedroom window.

At three in the morning, either option is very unfortunate.

Unfortunate.
My downstairs neighbors have decide to have their child (due tomorrow) in their apartment... in a tub of water... just feet below our feet.
I am a little more fortunate than you, dear AMS, because my neighbors are also my friends so I can threaten Dodgers with borrowing their soon to be produced placenta and putting it in our refrigerator to freak him out.
Dodgers may be a little less fortunate than you. Placenta really gives him the willies.
Good luck with the drumming!
I hope your evaluation went well. I give you an EE (exceeds expectations) as a friend and blogger.

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I completly sympathize with Dodgers. Placentas should not be portable. Placentas do not belong in fridges. Especially placentas that are not your own.

My neighbors were just as annoyed with the squirrels (I have decided that it was squirrels, rather than some other rodent) as I was. They started vacuuming around 4am. (I heard them discuss options) I quit my bed shortly thereafter.

Thanks for the EEs, will chat with you about evaluation. Need Jungian POV. Well, maybe Skinner. Who did avoidance theories?

Well, it depends which avoidance theories you're talking about. If you're interested in an analysis of why you may be avoiding something you need to deal with, for example, that would be Jung. If you're interested in constructing avoidance learning/ conditioning trials, that's Skinner. (Well, actually Thorndike, but Skinner popularized and refined it.)

I think it might be a combination of both.

Nothing anyone has ever done is bad enough to be threatened with Placenta exposure.

love your blog please don't stop

I found a placentophagia article I thought you might like. It is mostly about placentophagia related stuff.


Oh, and I was thinking about taking up djembe drumming, but I guess that would disturb the neighbors. So I'm going to go into squirrel breeding, instead.

josue: I'm glad that you enjoy my blog! I'm not currently planning on stopping. I will make sure that ll knows about your article so that she can tease dodgers with it. :)

My guess, squirrel breeding would also disturb the neighbors. ;)
