When I’m In The Shower, I’m Afraid To Wash My Hair…’Cause I Might Open My Eyes And Find Someone Standing There*

by Leslie

woman down the road
why do you come in my house
without an invite

My neighbor (you know the one) came to my house today. She rang my doorbell once. And before I could get to the door, she was already inside. She just walked right in and was wandering around my kitchen. WALKED RIGHT IN! WANDERING! IN MY KITCHEN!

This, to me, was over the line.

So, I freaked out. I freaked out BAD. Seriously, it was like I’d just taken PCP or something. Soon after, she left. I’m not sure she’ll be back. All I know is, I’ll be locking the door now. Whether I’m home or not.

That woman obviously has a problem! I would certainly be locking the doors… . what a cheek just walking in uninvited! I hope you gave her an earful.

Good for you for getting upset with her…hopefully she will get the point!!

Good for you for freaking out. But what exactly did you do? I must know.

That is just so completely inappropriate! We used to have a neighbor like that in our apartment building when I was growing up… ugh!

That is weird and rude. I only help myself in when I know someone really well or at a kids birthday party.
