We scurry to our apartment doors like little frightened rabbits. Hurry hurry inside. Get inside. Lock it.
Today while retrieving my laundry from the basement I ran into my neighbor. It was in the staircase in the back of my building. We startled one another as she came in the back alley door. Its kinda creepy at night. We were reliving a scene from Waking Life as we began the 'head down silent stranger passerby maneuvering'... like ants marching, never communicating. I blurted out the rabbit analogy (I think I heard it somewhere) and we struck up a nice conversation. Talked about the crazy lady that displays 4 pairs of shoes outside her door. Only the left shoe of each pair however. I explained the nice young lady in the unit below, via landlord proxy, handed me my 3rd and "final" music/noise warning last night.
What we have here, is a failure... to communicate.
Seriously folks. Its time to Rediscover Communication. [Fuck yeh, a titular moment!]
To me this proves how destructive isolation can be, and how pleasantly surprising socializing can be.
