too much distraction!


I'm working. Ok, I'm supposed to be working but I'm very distracted. Can you blame me? This is the view from my office window. Yes, that's two cop cars blocking my little street having a conference. What are those police men doing there?? My best guess? Something is going on with the Naughty Neighbors. But what? They are not not naughty in an interesting way. They are naughty in a noisy unneighborly way. They have loud mean scary dogs that like to dig under their 8 ft privacy fence and chase the other neighbors' kids. They often leave said dogs in the backyard all night long no matter how loudly the poor puppies protest. Their spawn likes to toss his garbage from atop his lovely jungle gym right over the giant fence. Said spawn also likes to hotrod his 4 wheeler up and down our street -- noisy, illegal, and dangerous.

I'm anxious for Buster to get home so he can go visit with the Nifty Neighbors on the other side. They always have the scoop on the Naughty Neighbors (Mrs. Nifty Neighbor is a police dispatcher).

I'm in full nosy neighbor mode. Think of the desperate housewife peeking through the bushes, watching, judging, whatever drama is unfolding because every single thing that happens in her neighborhood is most certainly her business. Privacy, pshaw!

But I'm not peeking through the bushes! I'm sitting in my office and I'm trying to work! Too much distraction!
