what makes me so CONFUSED (read: angry) is THEY have been so unfriendly to US! and clay actually IS friendly to the neighbors - I'm not! I'm always running late, got my ipod on, in my own world.
even IF we chose to ignore everyone and just be mutes, is it really the doorman's job to tell us to change? i think not. i'm fairly certain we're breaking no building rules - WE DID THAT BY MOVING IN AT 4:00 PM.
Still, stay on the good side of the doorman...maybe he will "intervene" and tell all how utterly mistaken they are about the cute young couple on the 12th floor. (How about a pie for the doorman?) Truly, it all falls under the "nunyun rule" Lee likes to use with me. :) Cindy
this is so different from ny; where you are encouraged to be unfriendly to neighbors. here smiles and waves hello are brutally turned down, only to be returned with looks away and awkward coughs. i like that... i would feel so uncomfortable to be obligated to say hello.
I live at the top of a hill in San Francisco, inside a high-rise overlooking the bay, alongside my green-eyed hubs. We like to make up songs and sit in the same room doing different things. I'm a freelance copy editor, growing a baby in my spare time.
I like to type here about things and stuff.

lets be clear - he was talking to me.
"They say to me - HE could say hi once in a while."
gooooood times.
Or better yet, how about, "Hi ya'll" and really show 'em how friendly Texans can be.

seacrest out!
Substitute "I" for "They" and this may be the real message.

I like any problem that begins with "our doorman..."

next time when he says something like that, jump in the air really high & do a karate kick and go
"hiiiiii-yahhhhhhhh!"
then pause & follow with:
"they have reason to be scared."
