Our doorbell only works sometimes. So someone was outside the front door, presumably having rung the non-working doorbell.

The pekes and I were dancing around the house but I passed by in that pause, and through the lace curtains, with very poor vision, I thought it was Kenny hanging out there.. and flashed him.

Turns out, it was our neighbor who I haven’t met yet… I guess we’re acquainted now!

The wreath is still up so that probably helped hide me. Being lazy pays off, once again!

Just another day in my absurd existence!
