Yesterday I mentioned the car game where, in big parking lots, you go around looking for cars with unlocked doors. You can play that game with houses too, except houses are so big, compared with cars, that you can't check nearly so many of them in one afternoon. Also, with houses, what's going on inside is almost always more interesting at night. The really cool thing is though --and a lot of people don't know this-- if there are people inside, they always act more surprised in the day time. It's funny how with cars it's just the opposite.
This old lady was really funny. At first she pretended like she was surprised that I was in her house; but I told her, like, the door was open, so I knew she wasn't surprised, surprised. For some reason, when I told her I just wanted to take her picture she got really angry. I think that, sometimes, old people have all kinds of pains from things like arthritis, and it makes them really cranky.
I'm still behind with my viewing, but I want to thank those who have been leaving comments who I didn't respond to directly. This is turning out to be a hard month when it comes to posting and viewing photos, and responding to those who leave comments. And I probably won't have much opportunity to use a computer again until later in the week, so I will be playing catch-up for the foreseeable future.
