You Own Me

29Apr08

I just took the longest shower ever and it felt amazing.

I saw a co-worker at the bus stop the other day (er, month) so obviously we got to talking about how close we must live, etc etc and it turns out as she was describing where her apartment is located, that it’s right across the street from my bedroom windows. So I went a little awkward and didn’t tell her which windows were mine and kind of avoided it when she asked, because, um, if I can see straight into her kitchen and living room, that means she can see right into my bedroom. Which is where some private stuff goes down. And I’m not at all good about keeping my blinds down, because my room is tiny (see: all of my posts tagged nyc) it feels even smaller all covered up.

So now I’m in this awkward position of always being mid-getting-dressed or mid-sexing and I suddenly realize that OH MY GOD A COWORKER IS PROBABLY STARING AT ME. And then I have to shuffle/cover myself/close blinds all at once. And it’s not fun.

But what is fun, is that now I have 2 people I know in 2 apartments across the street from me, so I can be a total voyeur into their living rooms. So if they’re ever robbed, I’ll totally be able to describe the bad guy. That’ll be pretty awesome.
