Living in an Apartment Complex...taking out the garbage, ah Nope

Living in an apartment complex has its pluses and negatives. One of the negatives is that there frequently are people outside. Tonight I went out to take out the garbage and check my mail when I was assaulted by the sight of more than 15 people, half adults, half kids. Instead of going through them to take out the garbage, I walked the other way to the parking lot where I put my garbage bag in my car until the coast is clear. Probably sometime after 10 or 11pm.
Attempting to walk around and through such a crowd was more than I could even fathom.
Somethings can wait. I'll put off emotional distress whenever possible. Thank you very much.
After dark tends to be the time when I can experience a little comfort outdoors. By that time the kids tend to be in bed, the teens blaring music from their rooms and the adults parked in their lounge chairs, in front of the tv with their chips and beer.
Nighttime is peaceful. The stars are quite quiet.
I'd go outside more often, but, you know, People.
