From The Walls


I always thought my apartment building was blessed with really thick walls but it turns out that my neighbors were just really quiet. I figured it out the other day when they hosted a party and I could hear everything through the walls. It got me thinking about all the ridiculous stuff they know about me by living next door for a few years. I can't believe they never complained about the old garbage sci-fi movies that I'd put on late at night, or the football games I'd watch on DVR cheering hours after all games had concluded. I see them from time to time, but we've never talked about the shouts at leading politicians I've directed towards the TV out of nowhere. Now I see they have a young child. I hope that kid doesn't grow up with some twisted ideas regarding what it's like to behave as a normal neighbor.
