Like zoinks! The end is nigh! Ever since they started constructing this enormous building directly behind our apartment, I've been living in fear of the day the new construction would top us like the little nelly bitch apartment building we are and leave us in perpetual darkness. This new building has been one of the most henious aspects of moving into our newest hood: jackhammers, dust and darkness oh my! They have been building slowly but just yesterday they put up the girders that will support the floor that will block all of our southern exposure (not that it was abundant in the first place). Such is the price of "progress" I suppose. . .maybe there will be some hot construction worker I can spy on from eye level now, although they all seem to be unattractive Mexicans. . .well, a boy can hope. So here's to natural sunlight, I will miss thee.
Our kitchen window with ominous girders rising outside
How high will they go? Only the shadow knows. . .
