There are folks trying to knock our house down this week.

Well, that's what it feels like, anyway.

This morning and yesterday morning, promptly at 7:30, people starting banging and scraping and prying and making all sorts of other noises outside our house that made the house shake at times. (Sound familiar at all?) In any case, the roof is being replaced.

The happy upshot of it, though, is that we're getting two (not one, but TWO) skylights in our apartment - one in our kitchen, and one in my study!

The skylight in the kitchen is in, and just has to be finished around the inside. So that's yay.

What's not yay is the early morning house-shaking.

What simply weird is the way I'm able to sleep through it. The banging and scraping (and did I mention the prying, and also the banging?) is very loud, but all low-pitched and fairly constant. And, unlike yesterday, not directly above my head when I'm in bed.

So I stayed in bed and buried myself in the warm covers, and slept through it.

Except those times when I woke up immediately, because the alarm clock was softly and gently chiming its high-pitched noise.

I'm weird.

At first I thought this was a post about people celebrating the Red Sox win.

I sympathize! They've been doing night work in Medford Square for about two months now (including tonight!) and very often I'll be lying in bed trying to sleep and listening to dump trucks going by.
