All of my neighbors hate me. Probably started because I tried to wave hello and fake smile at them. But once they call the cops on us for having fireworks (which are legal here) that's where the smiles end. I do not live in a place where people mind their own business. Oh wait yes I do...and they mind mine too. They can't help but to try and take a peek into my house every time I leave the door open. In New York, looking someone in the eye can get you killed. The HOA trolls the neighborhood constantly too. Measuring the grass and knit picking. Yet the block captain refuses to put her dogs on a leash. We had to find a house in a hurry when we moved in here. It's like living in a trailer park but everyone has more money and feels very self entitled.
