Welcome, Shir.
Sorry for the badness, Allyson and ita.
And I can't rewach Blink. Empty child scared me, but the weeping angels just creeps me out - completely.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I'm going to keep looking for a place and hope the friend doesn't want it, ita.
The whole backyard thing made me feel like an idiot. I mean, six peopel contribute to the decor and care of the garden, so it's more in line with my sense of funky contemporary. He wants it to be more elegant and Martha Stewart. Which is fine, but when I asked where my red ceramic bowl (I kept extra votives in it) was, it was stacked up on the side of the house with the "junk."
It just seemed purposefully mean.

Hello, Shir! Welcome to non-lurkdom!
I must share this beautiful shot of Chicago by night from 36,000 feet.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
WTF, Allyson. Did you let this person throw away stuff you had bought? That's not right.
Is the term "social" common knowledge?
Yes. Like they all said. Of couse I always want to make it "soc" like from The Outsiders.
Hi Shir!

No, I didn't realize my lights had been tossed until they were in the trash, under heaps of dead leaves and dirt.
He did ask if I wanted my tablecloths back.

Allyson, I'm sorry your neighbor is such a shitheel.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think I'm more familiar with "sosh" than with "social," but I have no idea where I'd have gotten that from.
It just seemed purposefully mean.
Tastes may vary. Politeness less so.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
beautiful shot of Chicago
very nice. Shots like that always make me wish I could go back in time and visit the city when the gas lamps were green.
I always want to make it "soc"
I have heard this, pronounced "sosh" as well but I think that might be the Calfornia too-lazy-to-pronounce-the-whole-word-even thing.

Wow, Allyson. Your neighbor is a tool.
He's such a tool that I want to come out there and help you transform the backyard into trailer park chic silently and in the dark of the night, every night, until the douchebag has an aneurysm.
