cool/creepy things about house sitting

-going through the kitchen cabinets
-using the owners shampoo
-photo albums full of people you've never met
-desk drawers!
-rearranging things, or thinking about how you would do so
-the moment of sitting on the fancy delicate chair, and it breaking
-experiencing the magic of cable, which your luddite family finds completely unnecessary
-walking around the neighborhood and chatting with people as if you actually live there too
-moving all the furniture a couple inches to the right
-ripping the owners' musical collection
-trying on their clothes
-taking photos of yourself in their clothes
-if there is a pet, taking photos of yourself in their clothes, with the pet
-thinking how uncomfortable it would be for the owners if you printed these pictures and replaced the nice black and white shots of paris in the kitchen with them
-leaving, hoping the owners won't know all the strange ideas you had about the private living space they kindly shared with you for the weekend
