About this random little blog:

I work in an office at Brigham Young University, a private Mormon university, where I look out the window all day long. While doing this I witness many things: lovers, haters, nerds, beauty queens, zit popping, pranks, public runners, dancing etc. Here you'll find my ramblings and thoughts regarding things from MY side of the window.

Inspiration.


The inspiration for this blog came last spring as i witnessed the following story unfold....i hope it disturbs you as much as it disturbed me.

At work i sit next to a huge wall of windows. The windows are treated w/ that stuff so that it's harder to see into them than it is to see out of them, like a toned down version of a 2 way mirror. . Because of this, people are constantly looking at themselves in the "mirror" and don't realize i'm right behind it..I've seen my share of people taking a second glance at themselves, couples making out, cleaning one's braces etc. but today i witnessed something that i NEVER want to see again. There was a couple (see picture...) canoodling and all of a sudden i see her reach up and POP his NECK ZIT.........wait...what?! did i really just see what i thought i saw? i felt like i was caught looking at something on the internet that i shouldn't have been.....but it gets better. she WIPES the DISCHARGE of the zit/pimple/growth ONTO HIS SWEATER. i about died...and my muffin from earlier almost made an appearance on my desk again. She continued 'grooming' him for the next 5 minutes. Popping zits here, flicking off hair there, licking her finger and slicking his hair...i mean...nasty crap. If i ever get married, i will NEVER let my lover touch my imperfections....especially in public. sick.

And so it began. my senses have been heightened and my curiosity increased. I can no longer hold in my feelings as i watch college aged students, their parents and siblings do socially unacceptable things in public. Spring has sprung (or whatever) here in Provo and the crowds are slowly growing...so It's time the world enjoys the cheap entertainment i witness each day. so...sit back, relax,pretend like you're working and enjoy the view from my window.

  1. Uhm, ewh! I'm glad I don't work where you do. I guess it's a good thing the nasty zits didn't shoot goop onto your window!

  3. So what? Humans are humans and do animal-like behaviors when they're in love. "Socially unacceptable"? Why does it matter so much what people think about social behavior, especially something as harmless as two people engaging in something they DIDN'T know was being witnessed. Finding appreciation in other people's strange little peccadilloes is much more rewarding than negatively criticizing them.
