Peep

Autumn is here, legitimately. I know, because last night I kept trying to keep my hands in my pockets even though it made walking the dogs difficult. And it was actually dark when I went to sleep. While I was walking the dogs, there was a little woman who was going up to people's windows and looking in. She must have done this at five or six different houses just in the time that I was there with Warden and Regrette, and she made no effort to conceal her actions, which to me may have been the strangest part. Was she lost? Was she just nosy, or curious? She passed me, and said to me, "it's amazing what people will throw away!" which confused me even further. I mean, of course that's true, but talk about apropos of nothing. She wasn't carrying anything.

Maybe she looks in people's houses and tries to figure out what there going to be throwing away the next day. To see the garbage before it is garbage. That would be a strange hobby. I said to her that I once threw away a brand new couch, which wasn't true. I can be a bad conversationalist, as you know.

I did throw away a nice vacuum cleaner once. But that's a whole other story.
