I was sitting on the front porch, waiting for the mailman to arrive. This was an enclosed porch, and if I looked up at the ceiling I was able to see through a vent in the floor to the upstairs bedroom. I remarked to Genesee that I wanted to put a couch on the porch, so I could drop Kitty down through the vent and give him a little "ride" down to the couch below.
The mailman came and dropped off a package that I had been waiting for. It was a GBA multi-cart, as well as a modified GBA SP and magnifying screen. When I opened it, I was upset because I thought it was supposed to come with a webcam (?) but then I realized that I had actually ordered that from someone else. Shortly after this I began to get ready for work.
As I made my way down the road, I realized that I had forgotten to wear my uniform - I was wearing my normal street clothes. I was already running a little bit late, so I was pissed that I had to turn around and head back to the house. When I got back to the house, I ran into Jackie and Misty outside - and they wondered why I was in such a hurry. I told them that I had to change for work, but then I realized that if they weren't at work... oh... the day was Saturday, and I wasn't even supposed to be going to work anyway. Doh!
Despite these facts, there were a couple of great big boxes sitting outside my house... ones that we normally use at work then throw away. I guess I had to throw these away as well, since they were sitting on my lawn, so I started dragging them down the street to find a place to put them.
I came upon this big fancy house, sitting unoccupied in the middle of a neighborhood of other fancy houses. I headed up the driveway and began to cut the boxes and fold them over so I could stuff them into the trashcans outside this house. Nobody was living there, I could see that there was no furniture inside, so I decided to take my cut down boxes inside the house to throw them away. I looked all around the house, going from room to room, before leaving to head back to my own house.
As I was walking back down the driveway to leave, mom and dad showed up. I commented to dad that whoever lived there was paying $21,000/mo rent, and that they were crazy. I said to be very quiet as we left, because we weren't supposed to even be there. Mom heard me mention the rent amount, however, and shouted out loud that $21k was crazy. One of the neighbors heard this and came over to check on the house.
She said she was a relative of the people that lived there, and that they hadn't actually moved out - but instead they were on their honeymoon somewhere. We acted like we were interested in buying the house, and asked if it was available to be shown by appointment. The woman just looked at us suspiciously, so we continued slowly towards our cars. The woman then shouted down to us, asking if we were the team of videographers that were supposed to be recording the events on the back lawn... we just ran away.
