Foo - Strange Encounters of the LawnBoy kind

OOOH mygoodness! I just had the strangest experience! It is 8:dark:30 at night and my doorbell rings. It is Jose, one of the fellas that does my yard. Ummm...OK...I'm thinking a)Charlie-the bossman-sent him over for something, b)mind goes blank.

I open the door (play creepy scary movie music here) and he asks to use the bathroom. Now, being the ever so nice person, and since I know the guy, I let him in to use the bathroom (I can hear you screaming at me right now!!). I stand at the open back door, while he uses the bathroom and my dog stands guard at the bathroom door. We stand and watch guard for a VERY long time. I finally hollar at him, asking if he's OK. He answers back, finishes in the bathroom and saunters back through the dining room to the back door, where I still stand, one foot in, one foot out. He doesn't seem to be in a hurry to go anywhere. Does he want me to offer him a beer?! what?!

I have to coax him out of my house as he seems to be lingering a bit, now my heartrate is really going. I get him outside and he stands on my back doorstep for a bit. In broken english, he asks what I am doing. I can tell he wants to hang out for a while. Ummmm...NO. He finally, after a period of awkward silence, thanks me for the bathroom, gets the hint and leaves in his big truck.

holy cow! what just happened? Now, when I say I know the guy, it is because I've been introduced to him (he's worked for Charlie for 10 years now), I wave at him when he's mowing my yard and there was that one time a couple of years ago that I played pool with him at the strip club (but that is another story all together!). That does not mean in any way in my mind that we are buddies or pals or that I am an emergency bathroom stop.

Yikes!

Maybe he's been watching that desperate housewives show and thought he could get lucky? :o

Mow your own yard?

Ohhhhhhhhh Liz. I'd be very very careful. Seriously. Please don't let anyone in like that again.

He's in lurrrrve. Avoid Jose at all costs.

I know I know I know....I am just too nice sometimes. He just caught me off guard.

Yea, Portis, mowing my own lawn would take care of the problem, perhaps. I really don't cherish the thought of having to do that though. I'd rather be on my bike than behind the lawnmower.

Funny you say that, AxOn. When I told Charlie about it he asked me what was up with me, why did everyone that meets me fall in love with me? yikes!

Assuming you're a female, never do that again...

why did everyone that meets me fall in love with me? yikes!

I have that same problem! It's tough being so beautiful.

Yea, nacho....tough life we lead! bah

Assuming you're a female, never do that again...
Yes, I am female and: I know I know I know...I won't I won't I won't
Still kicking myself!

By the way, what was taking Jose so long in your bathroom? (gross thought!)

...... and there was that one time a couple of years ago that I played pool with him at the strip club (but that is another story all together!).

Now THAT sounds like an interesting story!

you know, nacho...I was wondering the same thing....I probably really DON'T want to know.

Reminds me of another strange bathroom story....I was working in a vintage clothing shop in Long Beach, CA and this scruffy teenage boy came in, asking to use the bathroom. I didn't let him as it was in the back and we didn't let the public use the bathroom (besides, he may have stumbled on my bosses cocaine stash: another story). I told him it was broken. He BEGGED me to use the BR as he had to "take care of things". As in not #1 or #2, shall we say #3? he said that he had this condition that when the urge hit him, the had to "relieve the pressure" right away. Needless to say, poor fellow had to find someother place to jerk the chicken!

Carefuly Lizzy girl.....stalkers are a scary thing. I thought I was being stalked once....and it made my life a living hell for a month or two. You better be safe and make sure you carry pepper spray or something on your person.

A living hell? You know you liked it! I just wanted to hang out with you, but nooo! You had to sic your giant dogs on me. :mad: :p

So she should smack him upside the head with a fake gun?

Well....you wouldn't give up the Monster Energy Drink. :roflmao:

Before this thread, I actually liked jerk chicken.

ain't nuthin' fake about that gun.

Yikes! :eek: Be careful, CycleMagic!

Booty call?

By the way, what was taking Jose so long in your bathroom? (gross thought!)
He was getting busy with his right hand, because he realized cyclemagic wasn't givin none! She's a good girl :)

Yeah - don't do that again! :(

By the way, what was taking Jose so long in your bathroom? (gross thought!)
Killing kittens, of course!

ain't nuthin' fake about that gun.
Yes, there is... See those orange bands about the muzzle = toy gun

Mow your own yard?


He definitely wanted to trim your bush.

You're naughty. Wanna plant carrots?

So she should smack him upside the head with a fake gun?
LOL!

He definitely wanted to trim your bush.
AUGH! I was waiting for that one.....

Anyhoo....didn't get much sleep last night as I woke to every little sound in the house. I did call a buddy of mine who came over and checked things out, kept me company for a while. Good to have friends!

why the hell is everyone so paranoid? Oh no, not the mexican lawn boy

Okay now, guys, before you start rolling your eyes, let's just remember that we've all used this excuse before, right? Right?

Uh, hello, I said "right?"

*chirp, chirp*

Did your "buddy" groom your hedge? plow your field?

Now, which was the better trumped up excuse (using the bathroom, or being scared of the lawn-boy)?

next time, maybe he'll show his appreciation by building you a cake

Who knows what was up with the law guy (is he really a boy?) but between the playing pool at the strip club, the coke stash in the bathroom, and the free discussion of jerked chicken, I'd be trying to find an excuse to ask this woman what she was doing too.

He was hoping to get lucky. like, it always happens that way in the "Penthouse Forums". Glad you are OK.

with all this talk about stalkers and all..

i'd check that b-room out big time!!

you never know if the dude put a hidden camera somewhere or something..

why the hell is everyone so paranoid? Oh no, not the mexican lawn boy
I don't think that people are reacting so strongly because of his ethnicity nor his occupation. I just think it was very strange that this person that I hardly know shows up at my door unannounced,asking to use the bathroom. Then...doesn't seem to want to leave.

ha ha....I guess when you put all three of these odd-ball incidents together, it sounds like I lead a pretty crazy life. Truth is these all happened many years apart. My life is pretty dull in reality. Nice and quiet for Liz's World!

Yes, there is... See those orange bands about the muzzle = toy gun


:p damn, wrong pic. but, i think you know what i was trying to say. :D

That is too strange Liz, glad everything is OK. I would think that Charlie would have taken this much more seriously than it sounds, this is pretty weird stuff for an employee to do.

Yeah... She should beat him about the head & neck w/ a toy gun. :D

Thanks. He told me today that he was going to talk to the employee. I think he is just as baffled as I was!

Yea, Portis, mowing my own lawn would take care of the problem, perhaps. I really don't cherish the thought of having to do that though. I'd rather be on my bike than behind the lawnmower.

Rather ride your bike than mow. What if you could do both at the sametime?

He's probably just weird, wants to hang out, but doesn't know what to say. The bathroom was an in, but apparently you completely freaked out instead. The LAWN BOY IS STALKING YOU

I like the cycle-mower! fun!

You may be on to something, Falkon, he just wanted to hang out cause I"m such a cool cat. But you are right, I did freak out because it was DARK, I DON't know him and he was acting a bit STRANGE. Now, if he would have baked that cake, the whole thing could have ended much much differently!:D

Should at least get on your cell phone the whole time. That way you could tell your bud what is happening. "I just let the lawn guy in to the bathroom...now he is peeing... ok he is out the door"

If you played with him at the strip club, he might have the, (apparently wrong), idea that you would play with him in your home.
