Neighbors

Its always sort of an anxiety moving to a new neighborhood and finding out who your new neighbors are.    So when I moved in a few months ago to my new home, I was really happy to find a really cool and intelligent couple around my age living next door to me.   Unfortunately they told me they were moving to Malaysia and selling their home.   Even worse, my girlfriend and I had them over to visit for some wine and some snacks before they left and it turns out they are really engaging to talk to and it looks like we would have been really good friends if they had been staying. I guess I just hope that whoever buys the house next to me is cool or at least doesn't mind loud movie soundtracks late at night.
