Just because you're paranoid...

I wrote in this entry about my paranoid reaction to the meter reader in my yard.

Turns out that my paranoia is not without some foundation-

when she bounded out of the shower and downstairs in search of a comb, only to face a set of binoculars focused on her house from the yard next door.


And who is this masher, this miscreant invading the ladie's privacy?

Turns out it was her friendly gas meter reader operating in winter mode. The man explained that he uses binoculars to read the tiny dials on the meter because "it's easier to do it with binoculars."


I'll bet it is.

The Enbridge gas company confirms that meter readers, who work for private contractors, are authorized to use binoculars when snow or other obstacles block their way.


And of course we can always trust the gas company to be completely discreet by sending only upstanding citizens into our backyards.

That's it.

Time to let the dog roam free to chew up some trespassers...
