guilty. how could a woman so adept at handling even the smallest minutiae of everything in her life to perfection not know anything? plus i think a little jail time would benefit her enormously...

What should I do?
by siegswife inthis isn't jw related, but i was hoping to get some feedback on a problem that i'm having.. here's the deal.
yesterday my downstairs neighbor told the maintenance man that she want to shoot us (my family).
i've known for about 2 years that she has some mental problems and was somehow focused on us, but i didn't realize to what extent.. two years ago, around christmas, we came home from somewhere and saw 2 christmas cards laying on the rug outside our door.

siegswife, first go to the office and file a formal complaint and talk to the manager or owner. then call the police department and tell them the story and ask if there is anything you can do about verbal threats. they may take this seriously and go talk to her, which might be enough to make her stay away from you.
then go buy a gun.
i never had a gun until one time a man chased me up the stairs into my apartment. fortunately, i was a lot faster than him and made it inside and locked the door before he could catch me. i called the police immediately. even though he had already left and didn't touch me, they took me seriously and took my complaint. then i got a gun and learned how to shoot etc. a week later i was home working out and i heard a noise outside, the door light was out and it was pitch black. somone was pounding and pounding on the door and i didn't answer. then they started to jiggle the doorknob, so i got the gun. i told whoever it was that i had a gun pointed at the door and they better get there a$$ out of there. then i heard someone run down the stairs. then a couple of weekes later they caught a rapist who lived in the apartment complex across the street from mine. his modus operandi was to dress in a gas station attendant shirt. this guy wore a shell oil logo on his, and what creeped me out was he was satnding in the alcove underneath the stairs when he approached me and he said could i answer a few questions about energy consumption or something but his eyes looked weird and i knew he was bad so i said no and he wouldn't take no for an answer and then he chased me up the stairs... so anyway i'm pretty sure he was the rapist. (whew)
you should take any threat seriously, to protect yourself. good luck p.s. i wouldn't let her know i was afraid. rather, let her know that things are in place to protect you and if she messes with you, she's messing with the wrong person.

oh, Jesus! that's always been one of my favorite passages. in fact, years ago, i typed it on a pice of paper and hung it on my wall at work, then i took it down and kept it in my copy of "bartlett's familiar quotations". it's still there to this day:
"But then they danced down the street like dingledodies, and I shambled after as Ive been doing all my life after people who interest me, because the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes Awww!
i liked the bus scene the most 'cause of this part: "A pain stabbed my heart, as it did every time I spotted a girl I loved who was going the opposite direction in this too big world." he already loves her and she's going in the opposite direction. it's just so... romantic.
p.s. you're right about those being the true "religious works"... (ooh a "beat generation" version of the bible... i think you may be onto something there... seriously.)

i don't know... that bus line might have worked for me. i'm a big kerouac fan... and i have always loved this part, when he meets this strange girl on the bus...
From: "On The Road": The Mexican Girl, Jack Kerouac, 1947
I had bought my ticket and was waiting for the L. A. bus when all of a sudden I saw the cutest little Mexican girl in slacks come cutting across my sight. She was in one of the buses that had just pulled in with a big sigh of airbrakes and was discharging passengers for a rest stop. Her breasts stuck out straight; her little thighs looked delicious; her hair was long and lustrous black; and her eyes were great blue windows with timidities inside. I wished I was on her bus. A pain stabbed my heart, as it did every time I spotted a girl I loved who was going the opposite direction in this too big world.
"Los Angeles coach now loading in door two" says the announcer and I get on. I saw her sitting alone. I dropped right opposite her on the other window and began scheming right off. I was so lonely, so sad, so tired, so quivering, so broken, so beat that I got up my courage, the courage necessary to approach a strange girl, and acted. Even then I had to spend five minutes beating my thighs in the dark as the bus rolled down the road. "You gotta, you gotta or youll die! Damn fool talk to her! Whats wrong with you? Arent you tired enough of yourself by now?" And before I knew what I was doing I leaned across the aisle to her (she was trying to sleep on the seat).
"Miss, would you like to use my raincoat as a pillow?" She looked up with a smile and said "No, thank you very much." I sat back trembling; I lit a butt. I waited till she looked at me, with a sad little sidelook of love, and I got right up and leaned over her. "May I sit with you, Miss?"
"If you wish."
And this I did. "Where are you going?"
"L. A." I loved the way she said L. A.; I love the way everybody says L. A. on the Coast; its their one and only golden town when all is said and done.
"Thats where Im going too!" I cried. "Im very glad you let me sit with you, I was very lonely and Ive been traveling a hell of a long time." And we settled down to telling our stories.
.
The bus groaned up Grapevine Pass and then we were coming down into great sprawls of light. Without coming to any particular agreement we began holding hands, and in the same way it was mutely and beautifully decided that when I got my hotel room in L. A. she would be beside me. I ached all over for her; I leaned my face into her beautiful hair. Her little shoulders drove me mad, I hugged her and hugged her. And she loved it.
"I love love." She said closing her eyes. I promised her beautiful love. I gloated over her. Our stories were told, we subsided into silence and sweet anticipatory thoughts. It was as simple as that. You could have all your Peaches and Vis and Ruth Glenarms and Marylous and Eleanors and Carmens in this world, this was my girl and my kind of girlsoul, and I told her that. The bus arrived in Hollywood. In the grey dirty dawn, like the dawn Joel McCrea met Veronica Lake in the diner in the picture Sullivans Travels, she slept in my lap.

it's a GB trick to keep you away from rational people. people who could lead you astray. you need to do things like pray, study your watchtower and keep yourself spiritually clean. while you're washing your field service outfits, for example, they're washing your brain...

long hair is so nice. if there are two men of equal attractiveness sitting at a bar or something, i'll choose the long-haired gentleman every time. so soft you just have to touch it soon, and they know this that's why they wear it like that. ;]
p..s. the longest hair on a man i dated was this pagan dude who had lovely blonde hair down to his waist. tripped me out at first, but i quickly succummed... (sp?)
p.p.s. i don't really care for mullets though... :(
