So, this is what happens when I go to sleep. One page becomes four. . .
I vote for a wrench. A good sized, comfortable weight for your hands wrench. I always had at least one in my car within hands reach, and various places around the house.
But then, I've had a statistically improbable life. On top of the stalkers, I've also, on two occasions, had a carful of guys try to get into my car while I was driving. I've been followed close to a dozen times - but I always lost them before I got close to home or work or wherever I was going. Had my apartment broken into several times. You know, the usual.
Oh. I just realized. I forgot about a fourth stalker. University. Botany class. That was nasty.
Trisha - there is always logic behind my apparently crazy actions. Ya just have to dig a little deeper. And I'm far safer in Sri Lanka than I ever was in Canada.
Eljay - loved the jackhammer pic. You're a woman after my own heart! And I mean that in a strictly non-stalkerish kind of way.
Edit: One page becomes five. Sheesh. You guys are just too quick for me!

Okay, here's some pics showing the project in progress & finished. I don't have a finished picture with all the plantings and stuff, I was waiting for them to fill out a bit first. I'll probably post one this summer.

Thank you. My parents were fabulous to help as much as they did. We did the side and front last summer and the back the summer before that. I love the way it looks now.

Ok, here is the problem with that....I have never MET ELJay...lol...
And she has said that she has had passes made at her by women....so meeting punwit AND his wife doesn't disqualify either one of them, right?
It only adds one more suspect to the list.
ELJay, make up your mind...either you are too self-depricating, as punwit pointed out (to his expense), or you are so confident that you say I have been flirting with you...
Make up your mind woman...are you that hot or not???
I just go for the laughs, that's all. Any day I can make someone spit coco on to their screen it has been a good day.

I like! It looks classy. If it were my house, that's what I would do. If I had the brains to think of it, of course. I'm looking forward to seeing more pics after plants are in bloom and looking good. Posts: 8355 | Registered: Apr 2003

ElJay, you can call me whatever you want. (O.K., but it seems kind of awkward. *rim shot* )
I am very prickly, and I really have no right to be. I will work harder on not being so prickly and more pleasant to the touch. Satiny, even.

Not being a Star Wars fanboy, I've completely forgotten how that line goes. 'This sand is rough, but your skin is smooth'? That doesn't sound right, though.

AJ, I'm in central, remember... the pics were up before 9:30.
I did look out the window, but only off and on this time. I3 stopped by for a drink and a chat, and we stayed at the kitchen table where I could watch out the window until about 10:30. Didn't see anyone.
Kwea, your post made no sense. You have to meet someone before you can flirt with them? Since when? And punwit never said I was self-depricating, he referred to my "self assurance and centeredness" and said I "exude self confidence and a sense of knowing who you are." Very different. And nobody, myself least of all, has said I'm lacking in self-confidence. So, I don't know where you got that one from, but you'd be a lot funnier if you tracked a little better.
Storm... thank you. But I shall save it for special occasions. And really, you can be as prickly as you want to be.
quids... thanks. I'll make sure to remember to put up pics this summer. Hopefully I'll get some of the butterflies in my butterfly garden later in the year.

Sorry, tone is all...and it is lacking here online.
I was kidding, just teasing around really.
No you don't have to meet someone to flirt...it was just a refrence back to the earlier post, trying to joke about punwit being the stalker....sorry if I wasn't clear about that.
And the "self-depricating" part was about how you said you weren't "that" hot....
I was also saying that there is a difference between teasing someone and flirting, and that I wasn't really flirting with you before...something I hope you had known before that.
Because some people think that you only flirt is there is interest there...hence me trying to differentiate between the two...
It was suppose to be a joke about being concited in thinking I had been flirting (just a joke too, as you are one of the coolest people I have met here), and trying to make punwit seem guilty again.
You now, it isn't very funny when you have to explain it like this..

I think we have a difference in definitions... yes, I've always known you weren't flirting seriously, as you are obviously very in love with your wife. It's cute. But just because you're not serious doesn't mean you're not flirting. If you were accusing punwit of flirting, which you were, I have no problem pointing out that you flirt WAY more than he does.
And I knew you were teasing. My point was you weren't doing it well.

Annie, that's really funny. If I had honestly been frightened instead of irritated, you're right, this probably wouldn't have helped. Of course, had my attitude been different, the thread may have been too, I suppose.
I'm changing the title... too lazy to have actually started a new thread about the sidewalk last night, so I'll just go with it here. Posts: 7954 | Registered: Mar 2004

I sat on the phone and chatted with my mom from 4:40 - 5:30, and saw one neighbor going to his car, two go out on their back porches to smoke, one drive through, and one cat.
From 9:40 - 10:30 I hung out with I3 and saw the same neighbor drive through, but that was it.
Boring, boring stalker.
Added: Okay, I'm not complaining. Boring is probably better than exciting, in this case. But it is kinda anti-climatic.

Ooooh, champagne and nail polish! My favorite kind of stalker!
Kwea, yeah, I know. But it's really served a good purpose for me, besides the fact that I like fluff. Bravado aside, this freaked me out a little, and y'all provided a good distraction when I needed it. (Home alone at night.) It doesn't seem as chicken sitting here chatting with people as it would have had I actually called someone to come over and keep me company, but it is almost as comforting.
