neighbor stories

[ben ji]

On a lighter note I've lived in my house for 12 years and my next door neighbor loves my dogs. He's about 55, married with no kids and every time he pulls in his driveway the mutts hear his truck and come over to that corner and he pets them over the fence.

He has been asking to watch my dogs when I go out of town for a couple of years but normally I just drop them off at my parents place....until next weekend. Its Don's big break and he gets to watch the dogs over memorial day weekend and he is super excited about it, even mentioned how his cousin is in town but he told him he is dog sitting for the weekend.

I showed him the ropes today and gave him a garage door opener, he's pretty jacked and couldn't stop petting them and telling them they are good doggo's. The dogs basically live in the garage/backyard so all he has to do is come over twice a day and give them food/water and if there is a storm just shut the door from the garage to the backyard. Don's gonna crush this dog sitting

I hit the jackpot with neighbors. I basically only have two of them.
One is a retired couple that has all sorts of fun things, tractor, guns, booze, etc. Mows about 4 acres of my yard because he just likes to (wtf) I usually drop off eggs and beer as a thank you.
Other couple is our age and has kids around the same as ours. It's the best of both worlds. They also don't live close enough where I feel obligated to talk to them every time I'm outside

We've been at the new place almost two months now and our backyard touches like 5 of my neighbors and only one of us has a fence so figuring out where to mow has been a nightmare.

But one of my neighbors is like 70 probably. Old white guy who drives a truck. Anyway we were chatting and I told him my job and he said "well are tariffs going to affect you? I just don't......."
Then he looked skeptically at my heavily tattooed, flat-bill-and-black-rim-glasses-wearing self and says
"You didn't vote for Trump, did you? I just don't know how anyone could. He just seems like such an idiot."
