There. I said it. There's just something about him that has always bothered me. Maybe it's the fact that he walks across our lawn when he thinks I'm not watching. Maybe it's because he used a bad word in front of my daughters 15 years ago when they were delivering flyers. Maybe it's because he insinuated to said daughters that delivering flyers was beneath his dignity. Whatever it is, I decided years ago that he wasn't a likeable person.
But today something changed.
Today I heard him singing. At the top of his lungs. How could I not like that about a person? I do that myself. Okay, maybe not at the top of my lungs, but I sing in public. Often. And I like it when other people do.
So I guess I'm gonna have to give him a second chance. (I wonder if he likes show tunes.)

Whaaat? He did???
I'm wondering if we have the same one... or if they all walk across lawns. I was outside one morning when ours walked by so I said "good morning" and he just kept on walking. He got a page in my bad books that day. Perhaps I will tear out the page if I hear him singing one day. :)
