And a weird thing happened that has never happened before

I went to an opening at a well-respected and established 

museum-gallery 

downtown and quickly realized that 

the artist exhibiting

was my neighbor-

like, the other side of by bedroom wall

neighbor... 

(I knew he was a photographer and sometimes 

we end up with his mail in my box)

Walking through the show 

no matter how hard I tried to

look at the photos and enjoy them for what they

were,

all I could think about was what a jerk that guy is

and how we have been listening to him scream and yell at 

his really

nice, sweet 

live-in girlfriend 

forever now, even 

during the time she was pregnant. 

That yelling has let up since it was born but now the baby cries a lot. 

Big fancy art show or not, 

I have a lot of evidence that points directly towards 

that guy being a real dick. 

fOLLOWUP: one month later I saw the guy at the next show at the space and we talked for a long time- turns out that it was a total fluke that he even had work in the space- apparently he really just got lucky... And he's really nice... So is his baby momma... So why all the yelling?
La-dee-da.
