She's Leaving Home (or is she?)

Glancing out my window and I noticed that my neighbour is loading boxes onto a trailer. Could it be that she is moving away? She's got a very nice house, at least from the outside it looks that way...But then again, she has been with a new boyfriend for a couple of months now. Perhaps they have decided to shack up at his place.
The Grapevine in this small town has it that she converted her storm cellar into a sado-masochistic sex-torture dungeon fully stocked with an assortment of products available from Christie's Toy Box, Grant's Fine Leatherworks and an obscure catalogue of German bondage gear.
But I wouldn't know about that...
I've never heard any screams (of pleasure OR pain) coming from that area of her backyard where it's situated. That means nothing, though, as those underground cellars are fairly well insulated and sound-proofed.
In the year and 2 months that we've lived here next to her she has never said a word to us, never acknowledged that she even has neighbours. Not that that's a bad thing...it's not as if we've gone out of our way to be particularly neighbourly, either...
If, indeed, she is moving, I will have few memories of her.
The most vivid will be the one where she's in her backyard swimming pool with 2 guys and another girl, cavorting with her breasts exposed to the world. Almost made me want to donate the funds for her to build a privacy fence around the thing.
And then there was all the firecrackers her boyfriend and she popped during the week before the 4th of July this year...illegal, yeah, but we just figured she "knew" the local cops well enough to not have to worry about getting busted.
She is generally very bad about keeping her lawn mowed...
...But I'm sure she's a swell gal once you get to know her.
I'm not judging.
