#and then took us back through the labartnthine house to the library where he had all the books

[guhhhhhhhhhhh]

Other eventful news, yesterday I said hi to my neighbor as I was walking up to my house and he said "let me finish walking the dog, in 20 mins I'll come knock on your door, I've got something to show you" and, because I live for the thrill and spice and variety that life can provide, I said cool, slay, cannot wait.

He took me and my roommate into a different house across the street that I guess he's moving into, and showed us some AMAZING, ANCIENT books like,,,, manuscripts from the 1500s, volumes full of etchings by rococo artists like..... books like a foot and a half tall and 6 inches thick with insanely detailed and delicate leather embossing. What I'm saying is when funky old men offer to bring you into their house sometimes it is worth it. Sometimes you don't get murdered and you actually get to see neat books

#but also always bring a friend just in case #like we walked in the house and one of the first things he did was show me the sweet spot in his dining room while BLASTING let it bleed #and then took us back through the labartnthine house to the library where he had all the books #he's an ammetuer landscaper and a professional metalwork artist but the thing he's done longest is restore old books #like he used to run his own printing press and publishing house #very wild #but yeah also at some point he pulled out the pill bottle in his pocket and showed us all the drugs he's on #absolutely bonkers #I was nearly late for a date but it was 100% worth it #he mows our lawn and hates our landlord with us so 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️ we sort of owe him our life #personal shite
