Hey hey! Don't make me drink alone.

My safety plan is my H's gun, which is locked in our safe. My other safety plan is to call my dad because he'll send the fucking air force to my house.

Mica I think it just comes with the territory for us. We have base stickers on our car that shows we are military. When we were in WA we were at such a small base that there was only 1 major ship, but all ships went out together. It was public knowledge when the ships were gone, so base stickers when the ships were gone generally meant a wife alone. So now it's just instilled in us to take precautions.

Yeah, I don't really have a plan for having strange people in my house either. I don't generally pick random people for service jobs though - I usually go through a reputable company of some kind. I do usually let someone know when they're coming and leaving though.

Good thing I don't do anything anyway. That'll be the one upside of moving somewhere where I don't know anyone =P

I'm nervous being alone here. I miss living in the country, where I didn't fall asleep hearing sirens at least once a night.

annakb8 · February 2012

Hey, I just finished dinner.

I'm not having an awesome night. I got a letter saying I wasn't qualified for a job I applied to when I totally was qualified, and my mom told me my childhood cat died today. She was almost 19, so it wasn't unexpected or anything, but I'm still sad.

PetalPockets2012 · February 2012

I don't have a plan except to try to run and hit the panic button on the alarm system. I now am wondering why I don't have a plan.

I'm more worried about being broken into than being alone with strangers since our break in. I was so paranoid I wouldn't let FI give out Halloween candy because I didn't want anyone to see in our house. He wouldn't sit outside and do it.

PetalPockets2012 · February 2012

I'm so sorry Anna.

Posted by mica178[/QUOTE]

Neither do I and I don't even have a dog! That reminds me that I was at home alone while our alarm system was being installed last year. We finally saved some money for it after I walked in on a home burglary. I guess that's why I wasn't scared, they didn't seem like the "bad guys" after that.

Probably a little dumb on my part though. I was just annoyed that I couldn't use our only bathroom while they worked on the windows in there.

Aw Anna. I'm sorry :[

<div>Aw Anna, I'm sorry. It's hard when a pet dies, even if it was somewhat expected.</div>

<div>I'm sorry Anna. DH's family cat just died also.</div>

tracym77 · February 2012

I think I messed up when I tried to quote. Oops.

Sesh, that knife story is awesome! You gotta be prepared for anything.

annakb8 · February 2012

I've known one of my best friends since kindergarten and her cat who I can't remember her not having died a little while ago too. I guess I'm just at that point in life where the childhood pets die. It's like an extra reminder that we really adults now.

Anyway, I'll stop being a debbie downer now. I don't have plans for when strangers come over either.

[Deleted User] · February 2012

I'm sorry, anna. It's not easy even if it is expected.

aleighk1 · February 2012

I am so damn tired of these AT&T commercials where people are like that's so 17 seconds ago and do you know how to post videos to facebook?

tracym77 · February 2012

Sorry Anna

aleighk1 · February 2012

My cats are like 12 years old and every time I go to my mom's I ask her if they're still alive. It's going to break my heart when they die even though I know it's coming soon.

ggirl2001 · February 2012

Hey all! I am sitting here drinking wine and sent H out to get me some more and some chocolate. He is going out with the guys tonight so I get to enjoy my time home alone

I totally didn't read any of this, so um, hi all!

ski2play · February 2012

That sucks Anna on both accounts.

I have no safety plan either. I like your plan beach, may use that in the future.

::waves:: Hi Lynda

musicalsunlight · February 2012

Sorry to hear that Anna,

At least he had a long life. I wish dogs lived longer, like horses do.

Directly below where I grew up. Probably about an hour south. Small world. Safe travels to him.

[Deleted User] · February 2012

H is out tonight. I'd just settled in and staved off my paranoia/fear of the dark and y'all reignited it, lol. I worry about break ins as well. Nothing's really ever happened on my street and I probably have nothing to worry about, but we're toying with the idea of getting an alarm system.

Anyway, I just started the Gossip Girl series since he's out. Been meaning to.

annakb8 · February 2012

Daff, books or show? Are you starting from the very beginning?

musicalsunlight · February 2012

I don't understand why people get so dramatic during these "Group nights". Almost all of these people seem insufferable.

[Deleted User] · February 2012

The show. Just started from the very beginning.

musicalsunlight · February 2012

I think 2nd season GG is the best. Then it just slowly goes downhill.

annakb8 · February 2012

I love the show. I mean I love the books too, but the show is awesome. The season right now is crazy, but the early seasons were really fun.

aleighk1 · February 2012

Musu, are you talking about Idol?

[Deleted User] · February 2012

It'll at least keep me occupied for awhile!
