What am I?

I am a house. Not a rock or twig, not an apartment building or castle,
but a simle single-family dwelling. Why, the question, why do I feel
compelled to ask?

Temporate Seasonal Activity: Leaf-raking

I'm very happy to have had this beautifully sunny fall day to enjoy
quiet, with that man coming here for his annual leaf-raking
pilgrimage. Instead he's spending the day caring for the "other"
house, presumably raking deciduous leaves, trimming branches, and
generally neatening up. Although I would enjoy more the presence of
another human family keeping me warm inside, I can deal with enjoying
the delightful wet smell of decaying leaves in my housely solitude.

Mid-Fall '09 trim #2

Oh! Really! At least the neighbor humans know how stay inside & the
Steelers chase a little pigskin ball....

Mid-Fall '09 trim #1

He calls it a trim ... I call it "unwarranted human intrusion" -- I
like my solitude up here on this Wilkins Twp hill!

Rearview Podcamp Pittsburgh 4

These humans just don't get it. They try to get together in their little podcamp sessions to "Learn. Interact. Apply." but what are they really accomplishing?

I'd like to know of just 5 new things to have come out of Podcamp Pittsburgh 4. Can you tell me? Leave a comment or send email to houseforlorn[at]gmail[dot]com.

Pre G-20 Haircut

Well, he's back, giving my lawn and bushes a pre-G-20 trim. I suspect
that I'll get at least one more pre- Podcamp Pittsburgh 4, which is
coming up on October 10 & 11 at Pittsburgh's Art Institute. Why
humans wouldn't have an entry fee for PCPGH4 is beyond me. But, what
do I know ... I'm just a house!

Jealous Cabinetry

Whoa, yeah, baby! My cabinets would definitely be jealous were these
to be affixed to them!

He found this ad for http://www.exploredplash.com - the site for the
Splash Luxury Home Collection, in the July 2009 issue of Whirl
magazine. While he's at it, he could install a pool from http://www.hydroworx.com
- now, that'd really steam my windows! :-)
