gracedpalmerMy new apartment is on the ground floor, in the far back corner of the building. This means that my windows are blocked from the rest of the world by wooden fences, and there's a reasonable amount of green space and broken sidewalk between the two (four or five feet, give or take). From my computer, I can see outside fairly well, which results in me getting to watch the sparrows squabbling outside. There've also been plenty of squirrels, one small stray cat and a young rabbit.
A moment ago, I looked over to see a small masked face with a shiny black nose peering in at me through the window screen. I appear to also have a raccoon who's too young to know any better and can smell my cooking. Since there's a screen in the way and it can't get in, this just results in amusement for me. Who needs tv?
