What are you afraid of? Is it a creepy laugh? Or, the old spooky house down the street? At the cemetery? And perhaps being trapped in the forests?

Last night, someone rang our doorbell after 10 p.m. My husband had already gone to bed, and nobody ever comes to our house unbidden. That was spooky to us, since we have heard tell of home invasions that start that way. We didn't answer the door, but after a while, my husband got dressed and went outside to investigate. There was no indication that anyone had been there. Kinda weirded us out.

I had a simular experience a few years ago. It was late at night. I was watching a DVD of "Muteny on the Bounty," and the door bell rang. It was bout 11 ish at night, so I wondered who it could be. It sort of "wierded me out," too, so I grabbed my pistol before I answered the door. When I opened the door, there was nobody there.

As it turns out, there were a group of teenagers out playing themselvs a game of "ding dong ditch" that night, because my neighbors told simular stories. But for some reason, I was just a little spooked.

Speaking of ding-dong-ditching, you should have seen the night my buddy's three sisters were watching scary movies in their 3rd floor apartment. I climbed up the balconies and started scratching at the screen door. Every time they'd look out I would hide off to the side. They'd shrug their shoulders and go back to watching the movie. You just don't expect anybody to be out on your 3rd floor balcony.

I did the scratching about four of five times then decided to jump out and scare them. The scream was so loud that every light in the apartment complex went on. They still don't forgive me to this day. It was also the first time I ever saw anybody ROTFL. My buddy was laying on the ground, rolling back and forth, laughing his behind off.

Good times... good times...

I got in major trouble when I was a kid for scaring the beejeebers out of my young sister. I probably posted this story before so I'll give you the readers digest condensed version.

It was October, but not yet Halloween. I got a skelitol hand that you could adjust the fingers on from a Cub Scout Halloween party. My younger sister has allways had a dreaded fear of something grabbing her ankle when she would get out of bed at night. She also was fond of a nap after comming home from school, so around supper time, I hid under her bed with that fake skelitol hand, and as soon as I saw her foot, I grabbed her ankle with the skeiltol hand. She freaked, my Dad and Mon got angry, and I was grounded for two weeks.

Construction. Right now any kind that will put money in my pocket. At least till the economy picks up. Right now we're building a swimming pool which explains why the rain put a damper on our day. Just checked the weather forecast, looks like we have more rain coming, I'll have to find something else to do. Never rains in Southern California. Pshaw!

Years ago I worked at a bridk yard cubing bricks to be delivered to various job sites. I also worked a temporary job for a concrete contractor, but the contractors son was the permant hire, and when he came back from his hiatus, I got laid off. I also did some very grunt level house painting, but I couldn't do anything intricate to save my life.

That's pretty much the extent of my experience working construction.
