3:29am: Annoyed

Three o-fucking-clock in the morning, after multiple polite requests, then strong hints, and finally yelling at them, the noisy neighbours have finally hauled their I-suspect-intoxicated asses into vehicles and driven off someplace.

I waited until 0:30 to start asking them to quiet down. People do like to enjoy their Friday nights, after all. But maybe next time I should start earlier?

5:25am: QotD

Corporal Chisulo: "Since when is Schlock in charge, Lieutenant?"

Lieutenant Michelle Diego-Garcia: "Rule two[*]: A Sergeant in motion outranks a Lieutenant who doesn't know what's going on."

-- from the comic strip Schlock Mercenary by Howard Tayler, 2009-07-31

[*] The rule number suggests that 'Chelle is quoting from The Seven Habits of Highly Effective Pirates, which includes such things as "Close air support covereth a multitude of sins" (rule 4), and "Everything is air-droppable at least once" (rule 11).
