From My Office Window...

Moving from the main reception desk to the back office could quite possibly be the reason I lose my job!! It’s a wonder I get anything done at all seeing as I spend most of my time gazing out the window...but the goings on out there really do keep me entertained for ages!
This week I have watched a domestic between 2 winos with the poor woman listening to her fella’s shite and arguing over the bottle of drink they were clearly meant to be sharing but obviously didn’t want to. Quote of that conversation has to be “You don’t want me when I’m sober”, I find it hard to believe he ever was!!
The house across the road has been providing entertainment for me and my co workers for nearly 3 years now!! It’s definitely some kind of drug house anyway, the comings and goings there are nobody’s business like! They too, are partial to a few domestics, usually the loud woman is screaming at the guy and giving him a few belts here and there. He takes off up the road only to return an hour or 2 later and everything is hunky dory...until she snaps again! We’ve even been witness to several interventions with the guards there and even came close to blowing their cover one time when they were watching the house!
The “Walk of Shame” is also a hilarious sight – this is most Wednesday and Friday mornings after student night when they are all returning home looking like they have the hangovers form hell and in no fit state to be heading to any kind of college, I’m guessing they never have any intentions of doing that anyway!
Road rage, always an issue around her because of the one way system and narrow road, oh god the drivers would going mad at each other...beeping and shouting and then driving off in a huff, oh I’d be cracking up from inside!!
Stay tuned for more...there’s always something going on outside my window!!


PS I've brightened up my blog colours in preparation for Spring! :-)
