My Crazy Neighborhood Pt. 2
There are plenty more crazy shops in my neighborhood. But today I’m going to show you one of my crazy neighbors.
This is looking out of my kitchen window, into the kitchen window of the neighbor in the building next door. Note how my neighbor has set up a cardboard blockade. Using something other than curtains to cover your window is the first sign there’s something crazy going on.
Let’s look a little closer…
I can see their kitchen has a mirror image layout of mine — they have the same glass-front cupboards for storing plates and glasses. But what the hell is in there? They seem to be hording tin foil, plastic bags, and all kinds of random Chinese products. They’re even storing stuff on the top of the cupboard. There’s a big cardboard box up there, and maybe a fondue pot. I didn’t know the Chinese liked fondue. There are bowls helplessly buried in the right middle shelf. And at the bottom right, it looks like a paper note. Is it a warning to someone to not take treasured items from the stash? Or maybe it’s instructions on how to remove something from the stash without having it all come crumbling down on you like a game of Jenga.

Maybe your neighbors have taken a shot of your kitchen sink and are blogging about it right now. Didya think of THAT, mister man?!

Hmmm…the cardboard does just block the bottom half of their window. Maybe they weren’t trying to keep me from looking in, but were trying to keep themselves from being confronted by the pile of dishes in my sink.
