Out of the Blue

We were in the city for a small dinner party at PapaBlue's last night when someone noticed there was a naked guy in an apartment across the street. Now I have to admit to having been a past resident of more than one Manhattan apartment without shades on the windows… it's fairly common to presume no one cares enough to be looking in. Whether that's true in general or not, this guy was certainly noticeable, and much to our voyeuristic amusement at one point he began cleaning the place, still in the nude, with a swiffer. We had a good laugh at this and went on with our dinner. After dinner someone commented that naked guy seemed to be gone, and then we realized he had just retired to the bedroom, and let's just say that he was continuing to curry favor with the lady of the house, even though his swiffer was no longer in evidence. Polite as we all are, we immediately turned away, and by immediately I mean about 15 minutes later after the dust had settled, so to speak. It was all very strange, between the lights being on in both rooms where all this action was taking place, to how the guy was performing his assorted tasks without any evidence of reciprocation: Our general conclusion was that these may have been paid services being provided, like a combo housekeeper/gigolo situation.
