... and move to a place with wider streets. Say what you want about the suburbs, but at least you don't have trucks making deliveries at 11:30 at night. Last night, we had the delivery, and it involved the truck backing up and going forward about a zillion times. So I got lots of the BEEP BEEP BEEP sound. Then they turned off the truck and unloaded it, shouting to each other all the while and listening to the radio. That's the usual noise, last night we also had a little kid imitating the backing up sound for a while too. Who lets their kid play around on the street at midnight? Anyway, eventually someone had to pass the truck, but the truck is blocking the way, so they lay on the horn. They continue to lay on the horn even as the truck is attempting to maneuver out of the way (BEEP BEEP BEEP), like the horn is going to speed things up. Then the truck had to get back into it's original position (BEEP BEEP BEEP) and finish the unloading. They finished up around 12:45. For the next hour or so, a motorcycle blew its horn at random. I assume that they just didn't want me to get to sleep because there isn't a damn reason for a motorcycle to blow its horn more than once... Grrr, if I lived in a newer part of the city, the streets would be wider and so people could get by without honking and the truck could get into position without so much beeping. I'll look around for a place after I get back from Greece...
