Where The Ghetto?
Ima get a complex if this keeps up. Another friendly (nosey) neighbor come up to the house last night with a “welcome to the neighborhood” gift, a damn plant, and look at me with that same incredulity I got from that other neighbor last weekend. I told both these people the same thing, more or less, I’m the new caretaker, or, Ima looking after the place is what I told them and the one guy actually said–Are you REALLY the new caretaker?, and the other guy, well, he just looked scared at first, probably on account of I just come out of the pool looking, I don’t know, maybe too much a long hair or something, but goddamn it, this is the way it is out here now, you know, for however long, and (I’m not saying I opened the gift card and am taking this quote directly but so what if this is “the premier property in all of Rappahannock”) so don’t sweat it there’s a new fool on the hill, freak in the big house, johnny come lately. I might let you come swimming sometime. I mean I said come anytime didn’t I? Even though you and I know I was just being polite and that you can’t take anything that caretaker says to the bank. That guy’s probably searching the Internet as we speak, looking for a good hippie manual.
But I’ll chill for a minute because people sure seem to have a sense for that out here. And I don’t want to get people talking about that hippie on the hill having self-esteem issues. Even though, let’s face it, a person with a full head of self-esteem is just someone who doesn’t ask very good questions.
I’m adaptable though. Ghetto dweller, King of the Hill, same thing, different view.
you've been transported to another world. i'm all game for a road trip if anyone else up here can get it together to crash your swanky pad in the mountains. are you killing your own food, too? i think i remember lots of wild turkeys around those parts. i hope you brought your bb gun.
Are you going to be there in late september? I'm in a crunch for a few weeks prepping for and then going to a trade show. Perhaps some decompression will be needed.
You know in June I invited all of you guys. Its yalls own slackness if you don't take advantage of this. Crash at will. I think I plan to be back in New Orleans for Halloween. M is ready to sell Dumaine. Come whenever Mark.
had lunch with c'mith'm and heard a bit of the doing your way and thought to chek in. hows the colors and the fishn?
Hey, nice to hear from you. I haven't fished but the colors, well, the colors are always nice for me. Heard you got a cool new house, hope to see you for Christmas.
