No Visitors

I am not home all that often. When I am, I never know quite what to do with myself. Sometimes it gets lonely. A guest would be nice because it’s not much fun having lots of things without the occasional show-and-tell. My peephole lets me check the hallway without disturbing my neighbors. It’s generally empty. My timing’s probably not all that great. Drop-in visitors never seem to be around when you’re looking for them.
