We know some of the neighbors. Our former next-door neighbor (they later bought a bigger house elsewhere in the development) is the association president, and he started introducing himself to everyone from day one.

All I want to know is should we start calling Kristin "Spike"?
Well, she is little and blonde...
If he runs off with a chaos demon, I'm blaming all of you.
In terms of the talking thing, yeah, I'm another of those "please don't talk to me" people. I love being social with friends, but I just don't want a casual conversation on the plane or in a grocery store.
If there is a crazy person within about square mile of me, they tend to find me and strike up a conversation. People have witnessed this many times. It's like a superpower, only, well, one that sucks.It's true. The only problem is that said crazy people also latch on to anyone else in his company.

I've actually been trying to meet some neighbors in the new 'hood. One of the guys (my first gay couple in the new neighborhood) told me that there were 5 or 6 people on the block in their 80's, so it's nice to have some history in the neighborhood.

Vortex! I didn't get to congratulate you on the new place yet, so this is an opportunity to tell you that I'm happy for you.
I wish there were an English translation to the Hebrew word that's a greeting for when somebody gets something new, because that's exactly what I wanna tell you.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I hate it when I get stuck next to someone chatty on a plane
One of the comedians on this years Last Comic Standing said the best way she's found to stop these chatty plane people is to get out a coloring book and crayons and start coloring the instant you sit down. Also, if you get a coloring book with the alphabet, spell each word and sound them out like a 4 year old.

See if was just random people, the kilt would probably help keep them away, but it probably just attracts the crazies.

Our wings are not tired
Yeah, and one of you is climbing on a plane today to come back. See, even from 1500+ miles they come back.
