The Baby


     My neighbor had a baby. I didn't even know she was pregnant. I realized just the other day that I hadn't seen her in a while. For months. I wondered what happened to her. I heard a baby cry the other day, but I thought it was a friend's baby. There was a unfamiliar car parked in front of my neighbor's house and I assumed they had a visitor. 
     I've never even heard my neighbors have sex, and sound travels around here. So I'm not sure what's going on, or how it happened. All I know is I'm tip-toeing around so as not to wake the baby. I'm banging softly, and playing my electric guitar at a low volume. I'm thinking of asking my neighbors to put a sign or something on their window when the baby's asleep. That way I'll know not to make too much noise. I'm not a noisy guy, but I am building a bathhouse. 
     I found myself whistling at my other neighbor's dog this morning. The dumb thing was barking for no reason and I thought what if the baby's asleep? Luckily, his owner told him to pipe-down. Pipe-down. Haha.
