As the time to move gets closer (just two more weeks!) I think about our neighborhood. It's not a bad neighborhood. In fact, our realtor tells us it's up and coming...but it's not quite there yet. We have friends whose neighbors babysit their kids and make them cookies and things like that. I'd like to share a few of our neighbors with you:
At the end of our street, there is a convenience/liquor store. Across the street from that store lives a middle aged couple who are drunk pretty much all the time. You can drive past their house on the way to work at 7:30 a.m. and they are sitting outside drinking 40's. One day the woman was alone standing in our street (it's not a busy street) yelling at cars as they passed and flipping them off. Every once in a while, there will be an impromptu yard sale- it looks like they just went inside and said hmmm...what can we sell? Our theory is that they ran out of beer money.
In the middle of our street is a nice lady. One day she decided she wanted flowers in her yard, so she went out and bought a whole BUNCH of plastic ones and stuck the stems all over her yard. I mean all over--not just in little flower bed areas.
A guy that lives a couple of blocks away was waiting for aliens on Memorial Day. How do I know this? Because he had a big neon sign that said so. This same weekend he decided that he wanted to spray paint his house using neon green, yellow, and pink. It looked like a mini-golf course building, which is ironic, because he also constructed a make-shift mini-golf course in his front yard. Wish I had a picture of this one :0)
