Mrs. Kravitz* goes on a rampage

Whee! It's snowing! The stuff that accumulates a lot too! And I have my GREs tomorrow, but I didn't study all that much for them, and they'll probably be cancelled! I feel like a little kid in snowpants and big giant moonboots with a snowmobile cap with the fuzzy on top who gets a snow day from school.

Channelling the rage...focusing the rage...making the rage a positive thing...I live across the street from the enigmatic Shaw property known by many locals as the 'House of Secrets'. The deal is that this old coot rents his house at 507 T St., NW DC 20001 (send hate mail there) out for private parties. When I moved in two years ago, the parties would be on both Friday and Saturday nights. Sometimes I would come home after working a full night at the Green Lantern and someone would be parked in my driveway, or later I would catch someone peeing behind my car.

Then some of the neighbors got fed up with the late night noise, car doors slamming, honking and people peeing in their yards and he kind of settled down for a bit. But he hosted another party last night. Sure, I was up being a whore online and playing CivIII, but what if I had wanted to get to bed at a decent hour? People were hooting and hollering out on the street until 4am. This is zoned as a residential area, I need to add.

Now gay bars in DC are constantly being harassed by the DC administration with threats to having their liquor licences revoked, while this crap across the street has persisted for several decades now. Clearly it is a relic of corruption from the Barry administration...this guy is gaining profit from hosting these events, and I know it is without a license of any sort. Many of us in da 'hood are pissed off, and I for one have had enough of it. BY THE POWER OF QUEERSKULL, I AM MRS. KRAVITZ! No more Mr. Nice Jimbo...I'm going to the next 'hood meeting and we are going to get some things changed in this part of DC.

*There were TWO actresses who performed the role of the neighborhood nosy lady in the television series Bewitched. The original Mrs. Kravitz, Alice Pearce, played her role for two years knowing she was ill with cancer. She posthumoniously received the Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy TV Emmy Award in 1966. The second Mrs. Kravitz was played by Sandra Gould.
