Brunette’s spawn and Blonde’s nephew flew into Boston from his home in San Francisco and came to visit his favorite aunt (he only has two and one looks more like an uncle and is unlikely to have him in her will).
Blonde picked up Nephew at the airport, drove the 15 minutes home and the two entered her building, dropped Nephew’s things in the guest room and went down to the patio. Nephew pulled the door shut and then said “I hope you have a key if that thing locked”.
She didn’t. It did.
Blonde always knew her nephew wasn’t adopted (bummer for him) but this was better proof than any blood test. Another family member who is barely off the plane before doing something stupid first and mulling the consequences later.
Luckily Nephew is in shape and a resourceful chap (wait, maybe he is adopted…) so he managed to do a pull-up and hoist himself over the patio fence. Then he walked around the corner, put his hands on the window to Blonde’s den and pushed it up. Dressed in khaki’s and in a white T-shirt (due to having removed his “real” shirt to keep it clean) he was able to crawl over a window box full of flowers and into the apartment. This was near a busy intersection on a Sunday afternoon with many people out and about. No one questioned or shot him or even showed interest.
Blonde was very happy to have such a quick resolution to the situation but less thrilled that her windows didn’t lock and no one minds if they see men crawling in her windows. Men crawling out is something they’ve seen a lot of but men crawling in is cause for alarm.
The windows now lock.
The family is still full of bozos.
