Yesterday I emailed my massage guy (he makes house calls) because I needed a massage. His car was in the shop, so he asked if we could meet in the evening. Sure, fine--kind of weird, but I told him 8:00 was fine. I went to a school basketball game, came home, and here he was.

About 20 minutes into it, we hear sirens. The sirens slowed, and then stopped...I'm used to this happening because of my crazy neighbors, but this time they stopped before my house. Mike went to the window and said, "The fire engine stopped in front of your parents' house. Do you need to call them?" I told them my parents were out of town--unless the cats called or the place was on fire, they're in the wrong place. Nevertheless, I needed to check it out. Too bad I was butt-naked...Chaos ensued...Turns out my elderly neighbor across the street had fallen and cut her head, and looking back, I'm amazed that I didn't do the same in the hubbub.

(I got the scoop when I called my other elderly neighbor a bit later. I haven't talked to him in years--we wave as we drive by--and the man kept me on the phone for a half hour. I gotta say I'm grateful to have 4 neighbors within sight of my house who have been there for 50 years, not to mention my parents next door. Hard to feel unsafe.)

So then I went over to my parents house. My well is low again, so I've been bathing over there. I got in the tub, and here come the cats. They perched on the toilet to watch, and ended up sitting on the side of the tub. About that time my mother called to find out about my neighbor, and Bonnie Sue decided to see if she could fit on the other ledge of the tub (against the wall.) Bonnie Sue found out the hard way that she's bigger than she thought. I was on the phone with a cat on her hind legs in the tub with me. This couldn't end well. She managed to launch out of the tub, but hit the hair dryer on the way out and very nearly knocked it into the tub with me. I found water 4 feet up on the doors and walls exiting the bathroom...

I'm not taking my clothes off anymore. Too dangerous.
