Episode Five:
This one is not a complaint- just an observation.
Lesser Phil’s room is the one with access to our balcony. The balcony isn’t anything great, but it overlooks our fairly large backyard and is the only balcony of the house. Because of this, there is a door that allows you to access the balcony in his room. This is pretty straight forward.
Next to Lesser Phil’s room is the bathroom which, oddly enough, has a full size window in the shower. We have a curtain so no one can see in, but it naturally lights the bathroom and, if you were standing in the bathtub (clothed I would hope) and pulled back the curtain then you can get basically the same view as you can from the balcony.
Though unrelated to this, the backyard is currently a mudhole. Snow has melted and the ground is saturated completely leaving the leaves (that we failed to rake last Autumn) as the only protection from the mud. Therefore, there is not much of a view.
Walking across the yard a few minutes ago I noticed that Phil had something sitting out on the balcony. I couldn’t tell what it was from the ground. Now- I was going to let it go but I wondered if I could see it from the window in the tub. But just as I was about to peer out I hear banging and some grunting.
Lesser Phil still doesn’t know where his key is, apparently. So rather than ask for a copy, or continue to be let in, he’s instead scaling the side of our house on a regular basis.
All I can say is- that’s sort of innovative. Also, I hope the wood doesn’t break and/or he gets hurt. Because what else would I whine about if he wasn’t doing crazy antics? Additionally- I don’t want to have to feel bad for him.

well, at least he had the decency to climb up the wall and break into his own room instead of bugging you.
I would not do that, and i am less of a person for it.
just hope he doesn’t give neighborhood burglars any ideas.

Dude, he’s going to fall and break something, probably your new kitchen.
