QotD: Howdy Neighbor!
How well do you know your next-door neighbors?
Not very well at all. I've run into a couple of them in the elevators but at most we'll say hi, which floor, and have a nice day as we step in/out of the up down machine. I do know random facts about my neighbors from observation and random conversations I've had with a couple people in the complex. My downstairs neighbor loves Halloween and makes goodie bags for everyone at the complex each year. My upstairs neighbors I assume are either overweight or always angry since they're always stomping around. My nextdoor neighbor is a teacher and just had a baby. There's a retired sheriff who lives on the 3rd floor. A SUPER tall Asian couple who live in the complex. I swear they're both over 6' tall.
The boy on the otherhand lives in a gated community and they all seem much friendlier with each other. They wave to each other from their garages, as they drive past each other on the street, say good morning as they stroll through the neighborhood. I rather like the community feel.
