There is nothing more thrilling then being woken up every Friday morning at 6:40 by the garbage men coming to pick up the garbage of the apartment across the lane, which happens to be directly outside our window. Its even better in the middle of summer when all the windows are open because it is hot out and they let the truck idol for 10 minutes while they do whatever the hell it is they do. I didn’t know city workers actually started that early. It’s shocking actually.
Why must they ruin a perfectly good morning?

my kids’ bedroom is 3 floors above our garage door… every thursday the garbage men come during their nap. timing, eh? i hope at least they come around the time you get up… good thing they don’t come at 6:40 on saturday!

When I lived in Ontario there was an ice-cream truck that would park in the parking lot of my buliding ALL DAY and play its music and a voice that would go “HELLOOOOOOOOO!!!”. It was the most irritating thing ever.
Phx makes a good point :)

Unfortunately, I don’t have to get up until 7:30, so by them come at 6:40 totally throws off my schedule. Hahaha, I end up being a big whiny baby!

ice cream trucks drive me NUTS. think of those 50 extra minutes in the morning as “you” time. sit on the balcony (after they’ve gone) and sip some tea or something. :D or just cram your head under the pillow and try to catch a few more Zzzs. :D
