My next door neighbors are absolutely masterful at making smalltalk, able to converse for hours about absolutely nothing at all! Therefore, everyday I have to peep out my windows for five to ten minutes to see where they are before walking outside to cut the grass, get the mail, or to simply leave my house. But he has a strange superpower of always catching up with me. Today I saw him on his roof hammering, so I quickly got dressed and rushed outside hoping to elude him. I was locking my front door, still looking toward his house to see where he was; and when I turned around to rush down the street he was standing right there at my mailbox with his hands on his hips and a sheepish grin on his face. And I shouted to myself quietly: Im busted! Yesterday, I could have sworn that I saw him leave his house with his kids. So I grabbed my things as soon as he was out of sight and I rushed outside to get the mail, but he was standing right there beside my yard with his hands on his hips and a sheepish smile on his face. Busted! Two days ago I tried to sneak out the backdoor, but before I could take two steps away from the house he was standing at my fence with his hands on his hips and a sheepish smirk on his face. Busted! This week alone I must have spent over five hours talking to my neighbor about absolutely nothing at all, the weather, Swedish cuisine, how to install windows in a house, the times of the year that certain trees grow . . . This guy outsmarts me everyday! I have to try to come up with my own superpowers of escape! Anybody got any tips?
