I have a naugh-ty neighbor. Not the kind of naughty where she throws sticks at my bike. The kind of naugh-ty where she seems to incorporate you-know-what into every single conversation we have.
She doesn't look like she'd be naugh-ty. She looks like a grandma.
An 80-year old, lived-through-the-wars-and-doesn't-have-her-real-teeth-to-show-for-it sort of grandma, to be exact.
She tells dirty you-know-what jokes about people. And dogs. She talks a lot about you-know-what and dogs. She threatens to cut the you-know-whats off the dog next door if he doesn't stop barking. And she's repeatedly told me about her childhood dog who was a bit too you-know-what with the you-know-what and ended up with a whole litter of we-don't-know-who's-the-daddy.
And then there was the bus stop incident. Where she read the following newspaper headline to me and a few little old ladies: "Intelligent Women Have Better [You-Know-What] Lives."
So, with all of these naugh-ty comments and jokes, I did something that was naughty. I spied on her laundry line.
Why we all have laundry lines out here and why every one seems to actually use them is not the point. The point is that I was nosy and I wanted to know what this naugh-ty neighbor hung on her line. And you know that you want to see it too:
Let's just hope she's really, really intelligent.

in other news, you are so going to get chucked from that town. xoxo.
Of course, if your neighbor is really, really intelligent, perhaps she has an internet connection and has been secretly reading your blog. Now that would be funny!
um. let's hope not!
Very Funny,
I think maybe she is intelligent and the clothing is hung to send messages to here 'friends' in Semaphore lol. She must be wearing the best :)
Great site,
