Thank you Angra, she is no longer my friend because she was a total Regina George.

And thank you too Bloofer. ::embarrassment:: I carry a knife too, it's a deer hunting knife my grandfather gave to me.

I always thought I'd pepper spray, then I'd taser for good measure. I wouldn't want to shoot anyone unless I absolutely had no other option. I used to be very afraid of guns, until I was given one & taught how to use it. You're not afraid of anything anymore when you're holding a gun.

This lady helped me, but I never got to thank her. I was hysterical & freaking out. My former friend Julie told me that he probably thought I was one of the "working girls".

As if that excused it. My former best friend screamed at me that I probably had too much makeup on, & I didn't have any on. I just had on a sweater & jeans at the time. I screamed back that I could have been naked, & painted up like a Vegas showgirl, that still doesn't give anyone the right to do that to someone else.

I get paranoid in parking lots to this day, & I always carry my pepper spray in my hand when I'm out anywhere. I have a gun now & taser too. So it's never a good idea to sneak up on me when you catch me out & about.

I think that was disgusting of your friend, saying such a thing like that.
(((((Hug))))) for you.

Well, I was making a money order for a customer at the time, so he didn't get my till but I guess he was nervous and the gun went off and hit the floor and pellets ricocheted and caught my customer and shot his ear almost off. Pretty damn bloody and the poor fellow went into shock.

Holy crap! The dude who got shot - I hope he recovered.

I was thinking of that old, "Oh, that was you?" joke... but I was afraid you'd hate my guts.

Mine was probably fish-tailing wildly on ice covered road at 60mph on two-lane highway while I was driving next to full 18 wheeler semi-truck. I thought I was a deadman. After I gained control and slowed behind him, I realized the adrenaline-plus my body produced made me very high. That was the last time I made a "gutsy driving move" to make up time.

But it made you high, man!!?

Mine is probably from driving too. Actually a week or so ago on my way home from work I did something most horror fans PROBABLY wouldn't do. I picked up hitchhikers. Had my bro not been with me I don't know if I would have, but I can't stand seeing someone in distress when I can easily help.

It was a young couple who seemed more interested in getting high than stabbing me through my seat. So I risked it. While we were waiting for them to get a couple things to take them to a nearby hotel, bro and I were standing nearby waiting. I looked at him and asked, "You don't think they look like serial killers do you?" His eyes got big and he was just, "Well thanks now you have me paranoid!"

The ride went fine though. We made small talk and I even told them I had a shit job that barely made up for gas money so might as well try to rob someone else if they were criminals. They laughed and said something about a $200 stick they had with them. If anything I guess I could have robbed THEM.

We dropped them off and finally headed home at 5am. I could tell my bro was much relieved and we talked about our 'near death experience'. I fucked with him again and said, "well, they could have left a bomb behind in the back seat''.

He just replied, "I really fucking hate you." ::big grin::

Now THAT'S someone who deserves to loose an ear and go into shock. ::sad::

Yes, he was fine. He was a photographer by trade and actually gave me a framed picture to thank me for doing first aid and consoling him til paramedics got there.

as for the driving maneuvers and picking up hitchhikers...you're all grounded!

Awwww, but, moooom! ::big grin::

Looking at myself in the mirror in the morning without my makeup!

The makeup really helps this old broad!
