arriving home in the wee hours of saturday night\/sunday morning i found the other tenants of my building had parked haphazardly along the street leaving me no option but to park on the other half of the block where i have never parked before. i didn’t think much of it until i went to go grocery shopping and was waylaid by the neigbour i will heretofore refer to as “scary talking man”.
\nit was a drizzly afternoon and i was hoping to get done my shopping really quickly before i went to meet my dad for dinner. i should have known things wouldn’t go as planned when i got accosted by scary talking man as i went to my car. he went on about how my landlords, being german, had tried to take over the neighbourhood and he, as the son of ukranian immigrants, wouldn’t stand for that. i apologized for parking in his sphere. he quickly assured me i wasn’t my fault, they were for not providing sufficient parking.
\ni was out there, standing in the drizzle for a little over half an hour. his daughter has the same kind of car as mine, but a few years older. he’s offered me a set of snow tires if want them. he’s a retired ear, nose & throat specialist. the minister’s son who lives in the neighbourhood used to break into cars. he’s had a car stolen from his driveway. his children went to the “bad” highschool. he really hates my landlords. i didn’t have the heart to tell him they’re selling.
\nsweet old guy, but still a scary talking man.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
