So...I am almost asleep at one a.m., thinking deep thoughts* when I hear the sound of voices outside. Since there have been idiots damage our real estate sign in the past, I go on full alert. Then comes a big bang and the voices dissolve into two loud ones.
By this time I am outside on the veranda and all I can see is a cab, the driver has an Indian accent and was telling a fellow to come back and proposing to have sex with the other fellow's immediate family. He also made another offer which was a little more graphic.
The absconder, clearly a man of actions rather than words, responded with a combination of grunts and howls, possibly designed to be an imitation of an enraged chimpanzee. The taxi then turns to pursue the absconder as a surprisingly slow speed. Moments later a man runs past as fast as he can in the opposite direction. It is as if the whole thing was laid on to make me feel better about selling our house.
* The deep thoughts? I was thinking in the scale of the universe and the quarks that make up protons and neutrons, we are placed in the middle between the unimaginably small and the indescribably large. But, I supposed, I'd think the same thing if my belly button was the size of Jupiter.
