Boy, talk about Big Brother in Utah. Let Freedom Ring but water your lawn or neighbors may have you arrested.
This is a gutsy old lady! Wrestling with the twenty something heavily armed forces of the streets.
Reminds me of a story run in Portland about an older woman disgusted with her "pastel" neighborhood. She painted her house pink. Horrified pastel neighbors were interviewed. One woman kept prodding her young daughter to say to the reporter how awful the brightly painted house is for the neighborhood. The mother added "We thought it was bad enough when those neighbors (pointing to another house) painted their house dark green. Now we have pink. We are thinking we might paintball that awful house. (young daughter nods)"
No kidding.
An entire neighborhood of pastel painted neighbors up in arms over a woman painting her house pink, because she felt the neighborhood was uninteresting and very bland. Reminds me of Edward Scissorhands somewhat. Reminds me also of the Albany cul de sac where I live. Bland. Boring. Fertlizer neon green yard grass. Nothing alive condoned. Pastel painted houses.
I am a Cat Woman. My self-appointed mission in life is to save the feline world! To accomplish this mission, I get cats fixed. Perhaps my mission might be slightly delusional. This blog is a mishmash of wishful thinking, rants, experiences as I remember them and of course, cat stories and cat photos. I have a nonprofit now, to help keep the cats here cared for and to fix community cats. Happy Cat Club formed in 2015. Currently, we are on a mission to fix 10,000 cats.

Pink is an acceptable color for a house in Florida. We have lots of little pink houses.
ReplyDeleteI love hot pink. One of my fav colors. I love blue, also, and green. But pastels? Yukko. Noncommittal. Uninteresting. To me, says "Don't take notice. I'm barely alive. I'm a zombie, marching, marching in line, eyes to the grindstone, maintaining the appropriate distance between the person ahead of me in the endless marching line and the one behind. I have no inappropriate thoughts."
