Another post before 09, there will probably be more, but just to be safe i'll make sure I say, see you in 09 each time. Because, once just isn't enough.

So, my parents next door neighbor has this long haired bloak who keeps walking around the house, i've never seen him before I assume he is an estranged distant cousin or perhaps a weird nephew who needed a place to stay for the holidays, either way he is an odd duck that enjoys gardening so it seems. I say this because the past few times I have seen him he has had a hose in one hand and some odd tool in the other, and by tool I don't mean his tool, (har har har) BUT, REALLY, he really likes gardening (I think). At the very least, home repair.

So, tonight I was sitting on the back stoop smoking a cigarette after my parents had gone to sleep and I see him again. Same outfit as the past two times I have seen him, which includes black baggy pants, some sort of black band shirt, and his scraggly hair, I think i'll even begin to say his weird tool and the hose is part of his outfit since it always seems to be by his side. HOWEVER; this time, no hose, no tool. He gets into a mini van, and blasts music for i'd gather 20 minutes or so. Gets out. and goes to sit directly across from me, about 20 feet away and lights up a cigarette. So there we were, I felt like I was in face off, not the face off where john travolta and nick cage trade faces, but an old west gun slangin' sort of face off. I had wished I had my boots on, and maybe some kind of music that was like "dooo dooo, wah wah wahhhhhh, DOD OOODDOOOO wah wah wahhhh" you know what sort of music that is, OW and a tumble weed. Man, I wish these little scences in my head came true it would be so awesome.

So, anyway, I decide to just put my hand up and kinda wave (note: it's 11:30, and the only light is our cigarettes and the dimmed street light.) He didn't wave back this time, but I say it's because he didn't see me.

But, I'll keep you all updated on the mystery gardener as it presents itself.

Until then...

and yes, I have nothing else to do but bike, annoy my parents, and watch this guy, so there will totally be more updates.

POST TO ELLEJAY!
