where i have been staying here
is on the 9th floor

we have three elevators
two of them are hardly ever on
sometimes run during the working week
with glum looking ladies
who sit on diminuitive stools
and push the buttons and pull the levers for us.

the building is half residential and half commercial
on almost every floor (maybe every..)

so sometimes i get on in my speedo-swim-trunks
and women in buisness dresses look at me strange
averting their glance as quickly as possible


while waiting for the lift yesterday
i noticed this floor also houses a specist in viruses
and nerve damage


also
a proctologist




(ha! you're telling Me!)
