Covered Sugar
Beware When Borrowing A Cup Of Sugar.
Before starting on that large batch of cookies, you should always make sure that you have enough ingredients to finish the job. What you are wanting to avoid is asking your neighbors for the stereotypical cup of sugar. By imposing on them for this small thing you may learn more about them then you ever wanted to.
The biker that is next door to you has always had a menacing sort of image. In favor of finishing what you started on without having to venture out to the store, you decide to give it a shot. As you step into his living room you wonder if this is really the same guy. The furniture is top of the line. There is a sophisticated home theater system. The lighting is pouring from beautiful Tiffany lamps. To top it all off you notice a Disney scrapbook on the coffee table. The biker image is shattered.
There is a young party-goer that has not gotten up before noon, ever. You expect to see an advanced home theater system, and semi-trashed couches. Empty beer bottles would not surprise you at all. What you see instead is a classy sofa, well-kept surroundings, and an absence of a television. There is a tall stack of suspense books, very well read, near an arm chair.
The little old lady that you thought you knew so well turns out to have quite an electronics set up. You find out that she has been avidly researching the history of the LED backlight and invites you for coffee so that she can tell you all about it. Fascinating, and not at all the yarn and needles theme you were expecting.
The housewife that has always seemed quite meek now seems irritated. By knocking on her door you have interrupted her weightlifting routine. She has no sugar because she does not bake.
The prissy young woman may not be the friendliest person on the block, but she could not be hiding much. Then you see that she has been working on putting together a homemade fireworks display for a local grunge band. She giggles a little as she quickly explains away the smudge of gun powder on her nose. This is the woman you had an all frills image of just moments ago.
Being friendly and helpful to each other is part of what being in a neighborhood is all about. Just remember that what people present to the outside world can really be nothing like what they really are. Be prepared to be surprised as you get to know them more.
