Back to Work Early

So after spending most of the day raking the leaves, when the phone rang and the there was an opportunity for me to go into work and make some extra cash, I was all over it. It was my own stupid way of negotiating being able to stop raking. Not that it means anything, just that I'll have to do it all another day.

Interesting thing that I've observed about my "weekend" neighbors. They live downstate, and come up on an occasional weekend or holiday, they also rent the place out for weekends. Anyways, I'm not the only one that has noticed this about "down-staters" or "flat-landers" or "trunk slammers", but the first thing that they immediately do is go around and turn on every light in the house and every light outside the house. I'm not sure if it is due to a fear of the dark or if they just want to let everyone know that they are there. But my neighbors are not the only ones who do this. Anyways, this past weekend several people came up, and slowly they have left. I believe they are gone now, as it is 2am and there are no cars in the driveway and the last one left was the old guy. But what did they do, and what do they do quite often? They accidently leave the porch light on. Last time it was the light on the other side of the house. This time, it is the light that shines directly into my windows. Quite annoying. And the light is not dim by any means. So I guess I'll let it burn until it dies, or until they come back up to shut it off. Or I could stand there and pelt it with rocks until it breaks......

Off to bed, as I have to get up early to go back to work.
