My New Neighbor
The newest and latest addition to my 'hood, is my dear friend Kristin, her highway-patrolman- lover Chris, and their, "Oh God, are these really my parents?" daughter, Kassidy. Kristin thinks that she is a wealthy woman, and now actually has three homes. "Is she wealthy?" you might ask. No, she is just stupid. But she has a plan. Here is our conversation.
-Guess what? I talked to the owner of the rental house on your block, and we are signing the lease tomorrow.
-Really.
-Yep.
-So what about your home in Houston?
-Well, we are going to just keep renting it out, and hope that the renter wants to buy it.
-Really.
-Yep.
-What about your rental house in Kingfisher?
-Well, as soon as OHP gives Chris a definite date of July something, then we can transfer.
-July something, huh. What did you tell your new landlord.
- Well, nothing. Just that we are also home owners, and we know how we like to be treated by our tenants, and they liked us.
-But you lied to them, and didn't tell them they may or may not get their rent, because you may or may not get transferred.
-Well, yeah.
-Your not living with me.
Welcome to the neighborhood friend. I am actually quite excited that you are coming, and look forward to many late night trips to Bueno for party burritos.

I think your friend Kristin sounds brilliant (and cute too...) because as long as you have a "plan" then it doesn't really matter who you lie to and how many homes you have. You too, would say anything, to anyone, to get out of Kingfisher...and it sounds like her evil plan worked. You should really think about cooking dinner for her and very cute daughter when her highway patrolman-lover is working night shifts...maybe then she won't move in with you when her house of cards comes a'tumblin' down!!
