Bossy’s Favorite Things

The view from Bossy’s son’s dorm room.

People, we got trees and container gardens, we got southern exposure, we got a distant baby crying, we got limited traffic noise, we got birds, we got a tot lot — where we equals not Bossy, and she will cry now.

By the way, Bossy’s son is convinced something Rear Window-ish is going to happen involving this view before the year is up. Good luck, Bossy’s son!

   Maybe there will be some attractive female sunbathers on the first balcony (with the lawn chair.)

   Not only that, but look what an easy jump it is incase of fire!

   Once that tree sheds it’s leaves, Bossy’s son will have a better view of the action below.

   –>Hope Bossy’s son isn’t in a wheelchair for that Rear Window experience. Grace Kelly would be a great visitor though.

   I love to people watch–looks like a good spot for it. Just remember, people can see him too…

   I was thinking the same thing, Bossy’s Mom!

   It’s a short jump to the balcony with the beautiful sunbathing girl, then an easy escape via the staircase just below.

   Win-win!

    So is planning to borrow your camera to spy on people through the zoom lens so his girlfriend can go investigate any suspicious activity? That sounds like a great way to fail Columbia!

    If Bossy’s son would like to mess with his neighbors, I can send him a care package full of squash bugs and vine borers and cucumber beetles and grasshoppers and ground hogs and possums and other nasties that have decimated MY container garden.

    Darn, Hokie Deb beat me to it. Was totally going to go down the “hope Bossy’s Son doesn’t have to get a broken leg to have his adventure” route.

    Instead I’ll just point out that now he can decide just how much of a show he wants to put on for the neighbors after the morning shower.

    Is that a blooming mamosa? Andy would die for that view. Live it up Bossy’s son. Study and drink hard.
