V.I. Warshawski

I just finished reading Blacklist by Sara Paretsky. A fulfilling detective novel. Here is a question: Why is it that in so many contemporary P.I./mystery novels the main character must have a well meaning but overbearing neighbor? Why?

I planned to take a bus to Wicker Park to attend a stitch and bitch meeting. The plan involved me first stopping by my local yarn store to get a pair of size seven needles. The store was closed, I couldn't continue on my project without them and so I didn't go.

Instead I ate an avocado,tomato,beet, olive and goat cheese salad and then cooked myself some brussels sprouts with garlic.
