I'm really frazzled atm.

I was walking to the store and on my way I got lost in the middle of this cornfield...not much around, very southern country. So I come up on this row of houses, brick 1 level 70s era and i see somebody leaving so I'm like "excuse me!" And he stops...turns out this guy is like this creepy dude..very few teeth (literally) and the ones he has are really brown and one eye has this giant sore on it. So I'm like "wow you're tall" and he's like"yeah I'm 6'3" so I ask for directions and he's like "do you live there? And I'm like "no I'm just staying with a friend" (a liebecause im wising up) and he's like "lemme talk to my friend real quick".

Soo he goes inside and out comes this fat old redneck in his 60's/70's and the younger guy is like "come inside he'll explain it" (I'm not that lost so it shoudnt have been hard to explain it) nd I'm like "umm can you just tell mefrom here?" and the old guys like "no, no don't worry just come inside and I'll explain" and I'm like "I'm not comfortable with that" then they keep saying "ohh its not like that just come in real quick".

Then I start freaking out because like...I live in the middle of nowhere and I don't know where I am orhow to get home, my phones dead there's nobody around. And I'm waay too tired from walking in the heat for all that time to makea run for it. So istart screamng "you ->-bleeped-<-ing perverts stay away from me" and thank GID this car druves by and sees me just at that time. So I get a ride home withthis girl.

But now im sick to my stomach...very realistically that could have gotten really bad. Like...if I ended upinside that house I really really doubt i'd make it out alive. But tats not what's bugging me because...just senseed adynamic there.it felt like the younger guy was like...procurring fr the older guy. I dnt know. And just shudder tothink about any girls that might go in there. It was just so sinister and disturbing, in someway. And its not like I can warn anyone and I dunno.

Thatwas all on topof 3 catcalls from rednecks and a Hispanic guy harassing me asking where I lived all in one afternoon. In other words, ima NOT walk to the grocery store anymore

Augh, Abby, that is so terrifying! You used very good judgment though, and I'm glad you're OK.

Oh god. Glad you made it out. One thing guys will do is try to play on girls' sympathy and compliance training. Some girls would have just told themselves they were being silly and went in.

Actually, this kind of thing happens- son or whoever procuring girls for his dad. Scary ->-bleeped-<-. Good on you for trusting your instincts. You ok?

Well I know! And I'm the type of person who has a lot of trouble saying no and so it results in me doing stuff i dont want to a LOT, and for a second I was having a retard moment and i didnt realize what was going on. Then I wised up and started freaking out.

And does it really?? It was like an ah hah moment because it almost feltlike he was like...i dunno offering me to him? So that's when I went into panic mode because too there was nobody around and me and my mom just had a conversation with my little sister about how you should scream in those situations, even if you're not sure lop. But yeah good thing that girl was drivingby and I'm okay but frazzled cuz it was just a bit ago,but I literally thought that was it for a second lol

Geeze Abby, well I'm not going to get wordy, you did good honey, just be careful!

Paddle faster when you hear the banjos, sweetie.

I'm just glad she didn't end up like Ned Beatty.  For several reasons...

I'm thinking I want to re-pierce my left ear cartilage soon.

Lol agreed that was pretty funny. But it seriously was like out of deliverance. This incident has actually made my mom decide to move. Apparentlythe girl next door who is my age has been harassed like this so she never goes anywhere in town by herself. Which I almost *never* do, today was an anomaly but I see now why I shouldn't.

Geez. And I thought the World Cup bets were horrible.

We still have some decent bets if you look or they stack them up on a multi to earn more money. Problem comes when they make the mistake and blame you

@Abby glad you are now home safe

Only if they've et all thar possum stew like good boys!!

Lmao,y'all are funny, this cheered me up

I feel more nuts than usual this evening. It's tempting to just let go, but I have to stay in reality.

I meant to go to bed four hours ago...

Well, I had to disclose my old name to my boss, as I assumed I would. I asked her "who sees these files?" and she said just her and random admin people, so I told her "OK, well this name is going to pop up on my background check." She seemed really surprised but she didn't care.

How did mankind ever survive this long with all these f***ing idiots in the world?  Never mind, I think I answered my own question... 

It was because all these idiots have been f***ing this whole time.   

Unfortunately, the movie Idiocracy probably had it right. 

Sorry, dark moment there...

Lol you know though, that's how I comfort myself when I feel bad. I remind myself that lots of people are stupid but manage to live very productive lives.

Good to hear! I hope that the other admin people take it well.
I'm just thinking about my job interview tomorrow morning. Super nervous as it's my very first interview.
