observing

- I can see the neighboring houses from my second floor windows. I watched the guy who lives in the house next door come home and lock his bicycle up. Then, he walked around the back of the house, of which I have a prime-time view, and peed. I watched him pee in the yard like a true voyeur.

- my bathroom is a couple steps from my apartment. It is private and only I use it. I woke up from a nap and went out to use it and a small gray cat greeted me. It was very happy to see a person. I think this cat gets out a lot because I hear it often. It wove in between my legs a lot and meowed and took great interest in my bunny slippers. When I opened the door to the bathroom it ran inside! I had to throw it out twice. When I emerged the cat was not as friendly- it would weave between my legs and occasionally jump up on my leg and pretend to bite me! Then I waited for it to hear another person to run to so I could go inside my apartment. Being allergic to cats is lame. It's still out in the hall crying. Now I'm kind of afraid to go out to go to the grocery store.

On the weekend, B and I usually eat breakfast in front of the window overlooking the street from his 2nd-story studio apartment. Today we watched someone park on the street in front of his house, get out of his car, look around, and pee right there in public on the parking sign/bike locked to the parking sign/snow. While reading a piece of paper, as if what he was doing was nothing. I thought of you and this post... public urination is more common than we expect!
