How come all the interesting things happen when I don’t have a recording app handy? Tonight four or five houses down from me a man is playing an electric guitar badly and singing off key. The song apparently goes “llama llama llama, I like llama. Llama love. Oh yeah!” This has excited my neighbors tiny poodle and he is barking opinionatedly about it. And across the street the pool is full of preteens doing something that requires a good deal of screaming and splashing. It’s a hell of a summer soundscape. If only I had some stereo microphones out here.

Electric guitar man has given up on his playing. He’s decided to instead loudly listen to what sounds like the worlds longest and most generic psychedelic rock. Just one endless boring instrumental song with drums and incomprehensible guitar riffs. I liked the llama song better. One of the pool preteens was heard to complain “shut up! I’m not a vergin! I’ll beat your ass!” My guy. Puberty hasn’t even come for you yet. I hope to god you are a vergin. The poodle continues to bark excitedly about all of this.

And just a couple minutes after my last post my doorbell rang. I figured by the time I got all the way around to the front of the house they’d be gone. But no. It was someone who sounded like a woman in her 20s with some kind of slightly Spanish accent. She was asking me to donate money to a charity for children with cleft pallets. Random and oddly specific. I asked if they had a website. She said no. I declined to give her money. Is it a full moon? Because tonight has been unusually strange. Must be the heat.

@jscholes I didn’t think to ask lol. Probably too distracted by all of tonight’s other weirdness.
