😅 you know it, Jim. I would hate to have to do without men, I love at least one of them (Joel) very much. ❤️ I just want to be treated the same as them (at least when it comes to my paycheck). As for imagined horrors, my mind is often busy with real ones but the imagined ones step straight in when the real world has a quiet moment.
That’s because you have a great imagination. As to being treated the same? No, you want to be treated as a woman. Never ever belittle being a woman, wallow in it.
This is so damned good. I waS scared to death for you, and I'Ve lived alone for 22 years. I do, however, h have two dogs. That helps a lot. Great piece.
haha! Very good, very funny. Yes, I think spending time alone at night in your own house when you are used to someone being there all the time is terrifying, even for the seasoned adventurer! Spending the night in the Sacramento Greyhound station...now that gives me the chills.
'....actually I was asleep so I have no idea' makes me think of the worst, WORST things ever - when in fact HAVING an idea would at least make such a scenario dealable with! 🤣 Oh, the (imagined) horror!
Oh hell no with this whole entire thing. I kept thinking it couldn’t get any worse and then the monster spider that almost ate you. I’m sorry you shit yourself. Twice. Coincidentally, I was home alone this weekend and loved every minute, but mainly because I first discovered Love Island. This show has it all. I am hooked, lined, sunk.
Ok I had to come back and say: just ruined my life by starting Love Island USA. Two thoughts so far: WILD and, also, in love with Alabama Rob. 😵😵 As you were.
Oh man. I’m watching a USA version (season 3) and don’t know Alabama Rob, but there IS a Georgia fella called Slade and I’m guessing very similar archetypes. I cannot believe how much I’ve been missing out on. There’s enough content here to get me through winter. Godspeed.
It’s SO good. Honestly, this season was such an epic rollercoaster, I would almost watch it again 😅 I also can’t help but feel that if I’d had more Love Island to pull me through, those three nights would have been a lot easier…
🤣OMG what a nightmare, poor you! (Who needs evil AI when you've got a husband who likes his gadgets, amirite?) That spider though, I couldn't have let it go free in the house, I would have been imagining it crawling into my ear in my sleep and taking over my brain. Shoe-ville or bust for spidey...
I can relate to that. Used to be I was a chickenshit at night. But after moving in with the wife (then girlfriend), I realized that even if there were anyone in the house, out of pride if nothing else I’d let myself get killed first. The stress went away quickly afterwards.
I loved this--I too have turned into a wuss when I'm living on my own. Technology always knows when its just me; I'm sure Alexa and Siri and Nest all have a good chuckle about watching me patrol the basement in my boxers holding a steak knife.
😅 it’s become a running joke in our house that Siri hates me and has a crush on Joel. She ignores my every request and then to Joel is like, yes Joel, how can I help you, would you like a blowjob… 😐😡
Oh gosh, Jill, I was on the edge of my seat throughout!
I've fallen into the annoying pattern every time I'm home alone of going to bed far too late, and I think it's because I'm aware that it's just me, and somehow I'm responsible for EVERYTHING! Always a relief for my body clock when the other half of my household returns!
I have an ancient pair of cork-disintegrating Birkenstocks especially for the purpose. Easy to slip on at the bedside, clunky enough to knock out a house spider…
Jill, those with great imagination fear more because they imagine more.
I have a farm with lots of hazards. On the first aid kits I have printed, “Stay Calm The Worst That Can Happen Is A Horrible Death”
Perhaps thinking that will enhance better sleep.
As to rabid feminist, it’s like macho male, chuck it, men need women and women need men, end of story.

Money? Well that’s whole different issue.

And well it should, young Ryan. The stories I could tell you about Sacramento bus station … (actually, I was asleep so I have no idea) 🤷🏻♀️

Imagined horrors always worse 🙈 it’s the spiders we can’t see that keep us up 🤣
Actually, I’m the official spider relocation representative in our house - I don’t mind them at all. 🕷️
Don’t tell anyone - they’ll think I’m a freak! 🤫👀🫣
Tbh so am I!!! Joel hates them and I am mostly agnostic… Just, you know, not underfoot in a dark room please!!!
I hear you! Almost worse than standing on a three-pin plug - although a different kind of discomfort.
Note to self - and others - ALWAYS WEAR SLIPPERS!

just Googled Slade. Identikit, even down to the shoulder tats. 🎯

It was you! It was you! The Woman with the Pen Knife! That’s crazy! I had no idea whose living room I was standing in.
Next time you try any more of that funny business, you’re getting it in the eye, Mr Nathan. Watch out 😅🤣
You need decaf tea by the way.
🤣😆 oh if only it were that simple
Haha! Oh dear! This is why I stick to no preprogrammed automated gadgets in my house! Too creepy!

You are not wrong, Mr Troy 🎯 I was like I can’t believe you are managing to keep me awake in the middle of the night FROM CHICAGO
Husbands are exhausting.
😂 but worth it (mostly)

I always knew Siri plays favorites!

Same, I could finally get some REST 🙌🤣 (we do it to ourselves)
Haha! This is just how I used to be when home alone but funnily enough never when I was alone in a hotel...
That spider would have done for me straight away...never roam the house in bare feet...
Yeah, I’m starting to come around to that line of thinking 😵
I have an ancient pair of cork-disintegrating Birkenstocks especially for the purpose. Easy to slip on at the bedside, clunky enough to knock out a house spider…
Whyyy are they so big and chunky though 🤢 (house spiders I mean, not your Birkies)
I don’t know. They are built to put the fear of God into you. My house is full of those electronic plug devices that are meant to keep them away…
Ha ha ha. Controllers and lamps, spiders and appliances, a person has no chance, let alone shut-eye...!
Truly, felt like Job. Why is God punishing me
