In these post-burglary days, I mostly have moments of clarity.
Yesterday, though, I morphed into full-blown Gladys Kravitz, famed Bewitched neighborhood nuisance.
I'd spied an unfamiliar woman who’d been sitting at our intersection's curb for an hour, eyes on traffic flow, cellphone in hand. I guess she saw me – I mean, really, how could she not? I had pulled out a camera.
She apologized for spooking me, that she’d heard from her friend -- another neighbor -- about the burglary, knew it was fresh on my mind.
Right about then, the AAA truck arrived.

Dear Robin,
We haven't met, but I'm a storytelling friend of your mother's -- see http://ellouisestory.blogspot.com/2008/05/getting-out-of-town.html .
You were NOT acting like Gladys Kravitz, who was nosy just because she was nosy. You were acting like a responsible member of your neighborhood.
And you didn't even insult/upset the woman in the broken down car, since she knew of the robbery.
But it was a bit funny -- good for you that you can laugh at yourself, whether or not it's a day of clarity!
