Laundry

There are no laundromats in suburbia - everyone assumes you own a washer/dryer. When I lived in the city, we used a laundromat. My suburban friends were always astonished and dismayed that I should be so poor and have to go to a laundromat..... this motel comes with its own laudromat. Hiding secrets. All the secrets in suburbia are indoors, too..... now we're not supposed to have clotheslines. Some new government regulation. Wouldn't it be better to have a clothesline and save energy - who cares what colour your smalls are...... air out all your secrets in your backyard!!!

The Commuter Station

There is nothing possible that I can add to this already grim scene...... Thanking my lucky stars I don't have to commute. This is the mode of transportation for most unlucky souls in the suburbs.

What Colour?

What colour is your city...... where we live it is the fastest growing "mixed" population - that means, Indian, African-Canadian, Hispanics. I may complain about the loss of the urban environment but this makes up for it.

View from Above

I ask you, who wouldn't want to trade in a life of urban abundance for such a vista......

New Neighbours


We got new neighbours on Friday - they put up 3 satellite dishes and blocked out all their windows - not just with drapes, but some kind of sticky plastic to make the glass look frosted.....
what are they doing in there?

BBQ

My neighbourhood is very 50's......but with immigrants and retired couples. I don't know many women who bother to BBQ. We have a BBQ - it's in a box, unassembled in our garage.
Gas fucking scares the life out of me.
