Good fences make good neighbors.





Todd said I wasn't being neighborly.

The wife half of my neighbors was outside yesterday washing off a pot.

Sarah: (casually) Hi there, how are you?
Elderly Wife: Hi, Sarah!
Sarah (thinking): Shit! She knows my name...I STILL don't know hers.
EW: Do you like tomatoes?
S: I do!
EW: Do you want some from our garden?
S: I'm sorry, I have SO MANY tomatoes from my farm share up the street (thinking: and you had an out house in your backyard fewer than 40 years ago.)
EW: Oh, OK. Have a nice day.
S: Thanks! You too!
End scene.

Todd suggested that I should've taken the tomatoes and then throw them out so she thinks I like her. I think she might be more angry if she found out that I took and tossed her poop-matoes pretending to be nice. I think she should respect my honesty.



August 8th was Sneak Some Zucchini on your Neighbors Porch Night. I'm very sorry I missed it
but I'm about to go pick up my veggies and zucchini certainly has been abundant. Hopefully I can share one or two with the poop farmers next door and she'll forget all about the tomatoes.

It is NOT silly. They lived there when they had an outhouse AND used it because they didn't have indoor plumbing. If someone cute such as Channing Tatum or Bjork lived next door, I'd consider eating their poop-vegetables.

HH. 5pm. We get drunk. and then I go to class and have a presentation.
