    i have a panoramic and absorbing view from my work perch here at home. i just wish the intrigue and mysterious characters would begin. this is the cast thus far:

    chinese lady across the street who carries fish on a wire to the rooftop to dry it out.

    directly across – grey gardens style yard, danish home/asylum with a brown brick roof with housed up crazies wandering but remaining close to the grounds. overgrown, lush green yard with hundreds of daisies abloom.

    a young kid with seemingly new responsibilities loitering about half the day in the drive between the two places i mentioned. he's got new keys and opened and locked the gate with precision and care. he was dancing around for about an hour like he needed to pee or was simply overanxious.

    i can watch people playing tennis and flocks of birds eating in the park next to the courts. and if i crane my neck just a little more i can watch boaters go by.

    night is falling. supposed to rain for the rest of the week so programming may be on hold.
