Oh my god I have neighbors like that ><;; the occurences are few and far between, but whenever they do act up (they're not a couple, it's a family-ish sortof) the whole neighborhood knows. lots of loud, lots of slamming, and lots of swearing. very considerate of the small children who live next door, and the fact that half the street can hear them. And as MsA said, your neighbors suck ><;; sorry dude.

You think you got bad neighbors.... Try having one try to shoot your dogs. Couple a' years back, snow knocked down the fence and most of my pack got loose (Had six at the time) As I was rounding them up, the neighbor, who I tried to make nice with when he bought the house next door, came running out with his shotgun and started shooting. Missed thank god but the big threat he shooting at was a 25 pound puppy who was having fun running around in the deep snow.

Hwoon-Dahn.

I told him to put the gun away and he then told me to get off his property or he was gonna kick my Pi-gu. Well since he had a shotgun, I got off the property (A whopping three steps to my driveway which borders the two lots) If not for the gun, I might have pushed the issue since he's kinda like Badger in size (and attitude) while if I ever did the costume thing at a convention, I'd be Monty. (A short Monty but you catch my drift)

Anyway, Cops show up, I get a $50 fine for letting the dogs run loose and Badger comes a hair's breadth from becoming intimate with the back seat of a police car. Only reason he didn't go to jail was if they had arrested him, things would have escalated.

After several years of indifference and even hostility, I said the heck with it and moved in with the Girlfriend... Better sense money wise and no more dog shooting Hwoon-Dahn next door.

Sorry, had to vent slightly.

Hey you have here a very hormonal pregnant lady who would just love to see if she can get away with murder.... I would like to volunteer your neighbor for my experiment ( wherein I shoot him repeatedly... I'm not the best shot so it make take a full clip for me to be confident I've killed him)

I'm new here but would like to send my best wishes. A beloved sick kitty or dog is real hard on the soul, I know. I hope things work out, and definitely I'd go for denial. Every day is precious, and every good day keep thinking there will be many, MANY more. Face tomorrow only when it comes!

First, my best wishes to kitty Kaylee. I have 5 cats and love them all. It is so hard when one is seriously ill. I have been there.

Significant happenings in my life...hmmm...a college prof who influenced me to be a teacher...a safari to Africa (amazing!!)...seeing eagles fly and a whale breech in Alaska...learning to fish...beating breast cancer...That's all I can think of right now!

Thanx for the welcome MSA, I'm really looking forward to getting to know you guys. Am sending good wishes wending their way for kitty; you will let us know what happens, yes?

I agree about that neighbor...it's a damned good thing I wasn't there, I'm not too bright about self-control OR self-safety and would probably have gotten shot. But I'd love to join your experiment...except I'd say let's get him in a dark alley and do him damage; not the kind of person worth going to jail for!

However, in the moment, if someone shot my dog I'd kill 'em and end up in jail 'cuz that's not a time I use my brains...

As to imponderables, I'm kinda stuck. It sounded like, from the initial post, it was abou places or things that touch us, but people seem to have gone on to EXPERIENCES, so I'm not sure which.

As for places, it's easy for me. Seven or eight years ago I built myself what we call my "Outback"...a bed in the far corner of our back yard near our tiny "grove" of redwood trees. I've slept there evere since, outdoors, and only slept indoors two nights when my dog was dying (and only two because she wanted to be out there) and while on vacation in England. Otherwise, the peace, fresh air, openness, trees, birds...everything; houses are dead air, walls adn cramped to me now...FOR SLEEPING; I spend a lot of my day indoors otherwise in my recliner because of physical problems.

As for experiences, I couldn't narrow it down easily. I've been very fotunate to have many expeiences others haven't, like living in Afghanistan from 9-11, being part of a semi-professional folkdance group; having a booth at a Renaissance Faire for several years; working extensively in animal rehab; working at Marineworld; all are treasured memories and all made such an impact in my life, I couldn't choose one.
