What happened to you today :)
Re: What happened to you today :)
I had someone once who would tap/knock on my window every night. I was always too afraid to open the blinds to see who it was. Went on for months, every night at 10:06PM the tapping would start. When it eventually stopped I couldn't sleep, I was so used to the tapping I'd end up staying up waiting for it to come late 
It is absurd to talk of one animal being higher than another. We consider those, when the cerebral structure/intellectual faculties most developed, as highest. A bee doubtless would when the instincts were.

Oh my gosh that is crazy..but I would not have been to afraid to look and see who it was..I am that girl who would walk past a gun to grab a baseball bat so I could inflict some real "violence" on whoever was doing that tapping....+ my dachshund is an awesome attack dog.Flutter wrote:I had someone once who would tap/knock on my window every night.

Girl you do not want to end on CSI!
I think it is better to go out fighting, than to live in torment....
Well, I guess you should call the police...but some fun with a baseball bat seems sort of appealing to me..
Re: What happened to you today :)
Haha. I'd probably do that too. I think I was about 14 at the time though and lived in the country with my mom in a house of glass. My bedroom window is 4' x 5' and right on ground level
If anyone wanted in they could have gotten in very easily. The first couple nights I was scared and confused, figured it was an animal but I realized that nothing was happening and that an animal couldn't keep a schedule of 10:06pm up for so long. Never did any harm and it screwed up my routine when it stopped 
Kilofey's situation is very different and much scarier. I'm glad she's aware of it and hopefully she keeps a weapon on her body. However, it sounds like this person is a cowardly creep and I wouldn't imagine him doing anything aggressive. Certainly would never give him that benefit of the doubt though.

Re: What happened to you today :)
first day at work .. it sucked and was a little overwhelming. They are so out of date I am surprised that they have any control over anything and it is up to me to fix that mess. I have my work cut out for me. I don't think there was a single thing they did that I would agree with.
if you follow me, you avoid stepping in the crap that I just did...

.... today, i sold my 16gal bowfront with dwarf puffers
i had to because my chameleon's vet bills are quickly approaching the $1000 mark EEPP! i also have someone interested in my 55gal palembang/pleco tank... i know i know, i hate to sell my poofs, but i really need the money to make sure "picasso" gets healthy, im also in the process of moving and want to move as little things as possible. im pretty sad about it, but its something i need to do right now. anyway, im tired, just got home from a 10hr day of work. good night everyone

Re: What happened to you today :)
Today I went to hospital with serious stomach pain, I had to have my blood taken and this gross tube in my arm with a drip and like 5 tablets etc.. Apparently I have a kidney infection, I was meant to be seeing my boyfriend this weekend after 6 weeks so I'm not happy & didn't get much sympathy from him, then my gran went on a rollercoaster with my little cousins and had to get the fire men to cut her out and stretcher her off to hospital because she hurt her back and couldn't move, I don't know how she is yet, been a pretty rubbish day though.
Re: What happened to you today :)
That is a pretty crappy day. Your boyfriend doesn't seem very pleasant, can he not come visit you? When I had the stomach flu my boyfriend was there to take care of me and the stomach flu is just nasty. I didn't take as good care of him when he had it a week later

Re: What happened to you today :)
I didn't mind that he was like that I understand he wasn't being mean or anything he just didn't even ask if I was ok so I whined at him and he said sorry and how it's not my fault etc but he was just looking forward to seeing me so it was a let down kinda thing, could of handled it nicer but I understood, he can't come see me because it's about a 4 hour train ride and a lot of money & he isn't allowed to stay at my house which sucks but it's ok I can go next weekend hopefully I'll be ok then, these painkillers seriously suck though .. I have like 5 packets of tablets an it still really hurts
My gran got sent home she had a damaged disk in her back or something, has to go back tomorrow I'm not sure what's happening with that.
I hate hospitals, that tube they stuck in my vein in my inner elbow made me sick on the nurse
