The Walls Have Ears

...or, more accurately, The Walls Are Thin and We Can Hear You.

So Anne and I just moved into our new dorm room for the school year, in a different building than the one we've been in the last three years. And there are a lot of really cool things about our room (like the sink!) but there's one tiny little drawback - the walls are suuuuuuuper thin.

And the occupants of the room next to us are either 1) really loud or 2) fostering howler monkeys for the semester.

It's kind of a new experience for us because last year we didn't have neighbors - the closest people to our room were three rooms down the hallway - and now there are about fifty other people on our floor.

So far all we've been able to understand is a whole bunch of expletives and the occasional drawn out 'WOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOO!" (hence the howler monkeys.)

Then again, Anne and I just spent the last half hour moving furniture and lofting bunk beds, so maybe turnabout's fair play.
