i'm on my third day of insomnia, w/ numerous times of actually falling asleep
interrupted by their noise, that occur at times and in patterns that make
them obviously deliberate.
this occurs occurs after i go to bed,
0154-0200 two loud car lock tweets behind my wall sounded.
a tinny/metallic knock or bang heard, unusually near and an unusual sound.
0215 a wooden knock or bang is also sounded.
0219 five car lock beep tweets.
by 0222 told concierge's husband about it.
he had given me his permission to wake him in case they do this again.
he offered this himself.
i turned to him , per his offer, because going to see those thugs myself, their replies, their non-replies, their attitude often escalates my going to see them into a confrontation, where my voice uncontrollably rises, they gang up on me, i eventually get beaten up, and the fascist neighbors get incensed at crazy old me for stirring trouble - ignoring that i am , in fact, unable to sleep!
the noise jrnl for this date so far,
- noise.jrnl,
0053-54 thugs yakking loudly. car engine start.
0055 two beep honks.
0057 squeaking noise.
0125 car door slam. engine revving/humming.
0128/29 engine rev and s8y p8c honk.
this occurs after putting on music after a tv show,
<0151 engine start, engine revving.
0151 humming, idling.
0151 pan honk. another louder/closer pan honk.
a third longer pan honk.
this occurs occurs after i go to bed,
0154-0200 two loud car lock tweets behind my wall sounded.
a tinny/metallic knock or bang heard, unusually near and an unusual sound.
0215 a wooden knock or bang is also sounded.
0219 five car lock beep tweets.
by 0222 told concierge's husband about it.
he had given me his permission to wake him in case they do this again.
past 0414/20/30 while shtting in the toilet, something is knocked over
in the courtyard.
this occurs after returning to bed,
ca. 0500 car door slam
0503 thug sounds car lock beeps, twice, pouring water. car door slam.
I call the police, the emergency number does not answer, AS USUAL!
my chest is fucked from lack of sleep, inability to open windows - due to the thugs' noise - and constant smoking without the respite of sleep, and not least because of the upset - as I am by now - three days insomniac, and getting woken up by their noise which is all oddly situated right behind my wall - upset!
And there is no friend to offer any moral or actual support or help my self-confidence, or help me confront those fuckers.
Moving would be the fifth time in ten years, and i cannot afford it anyway.
0540 I call the police again - i haven't been able to sleep for three days or more.
But apparently the Egyptian police is too busy shooting tourists from helicopters, and rounding up every person with a brain into jails and torture dungeons.
They're not free or petty to look into the matter of someone deprived of sleep for four years by thugs who beat him up when he complains.
0523 chest gets fucked due to insomnia and upset.
and the loud coughing of course gives the bastard who's keeping me awake
the chance to gloat at me and hear the result of his work directly.
while, with me, years of reading, study and toil, get no reward or feedback whatever.

in the back alley then car door slams behind my wall!!!!!!!
Third or fourth time they get me out of my bed since yesterday at 2020.
all around sleeping (or trying to sleep) time they hijack my consciousness,
instead of thinking about the things ppl usually think about when they
go to sleep or when they wake up, or instead of focusing on the audio
soundtrack (audio book, music, video, whatever) that i keep on to distract
me from their noise and mask it out a bit,
they overtake my consciousness, turning it into a tense mode that is
increasingly stressed, and then frayed, where i'm just searching the
intermittent silence
for whether faint noises originate from them or not, or whether a sudden
loud noise of a car horn or car door or car alarm or car lock beeps
is the start of a new cluster of noise, or just a one-off after which
i can just relax into falling asleep.
it becomes a tense nervous anxious disturbed state of mind that quickly turns
to infuriaration and anger.
anger that has no outlet that does not harm me!
