To Kill A Woodpecker

Guess what?

I HAVEN'T SLEPT IN FOUR F**KING NIGHTS!!!! FOUR F**KING NIGHTS, PEOPLE!!!! AHHHHHH!!!!!

There is a woodpecker that's been pecking away at the drainpipe that runs along the side of my house just outside my bedroom window. F**K!!!!!!!!!! I am not happy, not happy at all, and I hate that damn bird with all of my f**king might right now. My roommate thinks it's funny because he can't hear a damn thing from his room. Nope, only I've had to listen to that freakin' bird beating it's f**cking love drum (explained below, just stay with me) at 4:30am. As if I want to get up at the crack of piss-crow with the little pecker. STOP IT!!!!!!

Anyway, this morning, while I lay in bed thinking about how to kill the damn bird, my roommate came to tell me that he figured out why it's been pecking away (at my sanity).

Roomie: (knocking on my bedroom door)

Me: Yeah, come in.

Roomie: (entering) Hey, so, the woodpecker is still with us.

Me: No shit, Sherlock. I can hear the little bastard.

Roomie: Oh, yeah, he's right by your window. I can’t hear him, sorry.

Me: Sorry, my a**. What the h*ll do you want, really?

Roomie: I know why he's doing it. I Googled it.

Me: (if looks could kill, the guy would be dead, the smarta** little sh*t) Please, do tell, since you're sleeping so well.

Roomie: He's looking for a mate.

Me: So, what, am I supposed to care about his lack of lovers? Get the h*ll out of here.

Roomie: He's mating. It's cute, don’t you think?

Me: Ahhhhh!!!!!!!!!! You insane idiot!!!!! Tomorrow morning, I'm going to open my window & start throwing all the knives from my $1000 knife set at that bird until I hit him dead on his bird face!! Do you hear me??

Roomie: You can't do that. Birds are protected animals. JB, you need to calm down.

Me: Protected??? Calm down???

Roomie: You can't just start throwing knives out the window. What about the neighbors?

Me: The neighbors?? What about my sleep, health, sanity, you freakin' moron!! Screw them! Think of yourself, or I’ll throw you outside.

Roomie: I emailed the lady at the newspaper.

Me: (did he just say newspaper?) What? Why? So, she can bore the bird to death with the local news? Or, maybe she plans to beat him to death with the paper?

Roomie: No, she's a bird expert. She told me the reasons.

Me: Seriously, dude, go f**k yourself and her too. Get rid of that bird, or I’m going Rambo 1, 2 and 3 on all your a**es!

Roomie: Maybe the bird will find a mate before that happens. Besides, I like my a** & I need it for mating. (he starts laughing)

Me: (giggling at how totally stupid funny he just was) Well, woodpecker lover, the little sh*t has 24-hours to get his pecking packed and gone with his new mate, or else....

Roomie: JB, you can't kill it.

Me: Why, are you going to stop me?

Roomie: I’ll figure something out, I swear to you. I know when you say something, you’ll do it. Just please don't, OK?

Me: Like I said, you got 24 hours, or I'm coming to you at 4:30am and banging up on your bedroom window, naked, with my box right in full view. Are you getting a visual, hmm??

Roomie: Oh, for the love of God, not your box!

Me: Yeah, the box... all Brazilianed (is that even a word? whatever...) and nice just for you. Are you still liking that bird now? 24 hours... that’s what you have.

Back downstairs he went and got on the phone with God knows who to figure out what to do about the woodpecker. Meanwhile, what do I hear as I'm rolling out of bed to make my way to the bathroom? Pecking. PECKING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm telling you, people, that bird is dead. D-E-A-D... dead.

  4. you could spray something nasty smelling (but non-toxic) on the bird's perch to scare it away.

  7. are you hallucinating yet? :)
    it could be fun, you know.

    so i got an email from big boobs, haha she was all like, wa wa wa stop trying to be me and stop commenting my blog friends and i pasted her the email from you where you told me that she was lurking your blog.

    i think she's a bit weird up there, if you know what i mean.

    she kind of reminds me of your ex, like she's a nagging obsession and because she's always hovering around and in your face you can never really become free of it.

    any tips lovely?
    hope you're getting some rest.

  8. Don't waste your good knives, sweetie. How about getting the feathered little bastard in style? Get some fireworks and aim a rocket at him - the beautiful explosion will be a lovely send-off to pecker heaven (eow) and will re-balance your karma by adding thoughtfulness to your murderous tendencies.

    Oh, and hope you had a lovely Easter, my gorgeous bunny.

    xxxxxxxx

  11. Understandishable as it is, it always pains me to hear a girl talk about how much she dislikes peckers :( On the other hand, your roommate seems quite fond of them.

    Why would it peck on a drainpipe, anyway? It's like the hannibal lector of woodpeckers.

    I'm sure there's some gunk you can spray on there to keep him away or else throwing something should scare him off, and if not I say get a bb gun and start making some evolutionary inroads towards smarter woodpeckers.

  12. Well my darling, it's official.
    The non-sleeping nights are attacting all over the globe. And I can't even blame e mating animal...LOOOL
    But go gentle on the little guy... or as gentle as non-sleeping allows ;)
    I hope you are okay, I've missed you girl! :)

    Love,

  13. Hahaha. JB, love, you are hilarious. Any more of this and I will propose marriage to you. Hahaha.

    The neighbor's cats are at it every night..and when they do that, I can't focus on my own sexual needs...so I told the lady who owns the cats that if she doesn't find a way to shut her pets up, my bf and I will fuck right outside her door and see how she likes the way we sound.

  25. @JP...my roommmates fondness for peckers is the only reason why that bird is still banging my drainpipe, ball breakers that they both are.

    I don't know why the drainpipe but it really likes it alot, actaully too much if you ask me and I'm just about to loose it. Thanks for the help but it's illegal to shoot birds over here WTF....AHHHHH.

    I was thinking Crossbow maybe...!!!!!

  42. I am going through the same thing right now! We have a woodpecker that is pecking away at the drain pipe every morning around 4:30am! My boyfriend has heard it several days in a row now and I've only heard it once! Did you find out how to get rid of the little pecker head so we can do it too? Or else we are going to be forced to start knife throwing too!

    ReplyDelete
  43. crawfo41: OMG, you mean I'm not the only one with a drain pipe obsessed woodpecker? As for getting rid of him, did you read my follow up post -- To Kill A Woodpecker - One Week Later?
