Lets be good neighbors


I think my neighbors are having hip-hop dance night. While sitting in my living room I can hear the boom-boom and screech of something that sounds frighteningly like the Electric Slide coming from across the street. It seems the adorable Jack Russel next door (who I will call Satan) hears the music too because he has been barking for twenty minutes straight. Satan needs to stop barking and jumping up and down before I go outside and steal the little trampoline that he must be bouncing on. All of the ruckus makes me wonder what I do to make my neighbors crazy. Being a good neighbor brings me to Mr. Rogers. He came into my house every weekday when I was a kid. This year would have been his 80th birthday. On March 20th (Mr. Rogers birthday) everyone is being asked to wear a sweater in his honor. Mr. McFeely (Speedy Delivery) is hosting the event and has a video on youtube promoting the day. I hope everyone participates in honor of Mr. Rogers and the neighborhood of make believe.
