Good morning Popville!
I’d like to welcome you to Day Two of the latest reign of me, the Lord of Petworth.
People had some absolutely amazing and witty comments to yesterday’s posts–thank you for weighing in and playing along.
And for those who followed my non-hypothetical hypothetical quandary yesterday, you’ll be happy–and amused–that I really stepped in it big time. Seems the neighbors I was concerned about–read this blog! Turns out they figured out who I was–and I figured out who they were–through the comments section of the post (and who says no one reads comments). As one PoPville commenter put it, “There is some good Internet playing out right here.”
I showed up with a six-pack of “liquid apology” and we all had a good laugh about it. I no longer felt like an ass. Then my dog piddled on their carpet. Then I felt like an ass again. They still had a great sense of humor about it all.
So, needless to say, I have awesome new neighbors.
Lesson learned–keep the hypothetical quandaries…hypothetical.
Now, let’s move on and see how I can embarrass myself today.
And again–tips, suggestions, complaints, and wisdom-seeking can be directed to eric (dot) nuzum (at) gmail (dot) com.
