Comes the Superbowl. I think this would be a good time to vacuum my apartment. Which I did for almost four hours, which takes a lot of doing considering my apartment was about 200 sq feet.

Gee, I hope my vacuuming did not scramble their TV sets. That would be bad. Too bad my cheap vacuum cleaner was so loud that I could not hear the knocking on my door...

Just like they could not hear my knocking on their door when they were blasting their music late in the weeknight.

Having a clean carpet is important.
