talking sh*t

Today I woke up to a banging on my door. Not your normal Jehovah witness, UPS drop off polite knocking. Its was a heavy side of your fist Poe Poe drug bust knocking. This was the first sound I heard this morning at 300:00 that’s right folks 300:00 I didn’t even know that such an hour existed until this morning.

Apparently some young “entrepreneur” was roaming the neighborhood (with a DIGGING shovel) offing his snow shoveling skills for a small fee. Which I’m all for.
However I am a new homeowner and this is my first snow so I got dressed got my bright orange SNOW shovel and went to shovel my walk way. On my way out I saw the young man shoveling my neighbors walk. I being a new person in the neighborhood, wanting to show good will and that I wasn’t bitter about the pounding he put on my door turned to him and said “hey, good morning” I waved and smiled and every thing.

his reaction: This kid ICE grilled me like I threw dodo at his mama. I got so pissed that he looked at me like that, that after I finished shoveling my walk way I shoveled the walkway of the next 3 houses and wrecked his whole hustle. I was actually done with those 3 and my own before he was done with his one. The smile that I gave him while walking into my house and tapping the excess snow off my boots …priceless.
