There used to be this crazy olde woman who lived across the street from me growing up in Brookfield. She would walk down to the corner (four way stop) and wait for people to pull up. If you were stopped long enough she would try to jump in your car and was successful many many times.

She eventually died in her house and nobody realized it for like two weeks and when they opened her front door the smell was so bad you could smell it at my house across the street.

haha, i really dont know what i would do if some crazy lady successfully jumped into my car. i wish i could have seen people's reactions to that.

i don't think you're heartless. i probably wouldn't have even lowered my window. i too am paranoid, thinking of the worse possible things that can happen.

i'd like to thank our families for that trait.

but seriously, who wants someone bleeding in your car?

remember when we first started driving our fam told us that if we get rear ended in the middle of the night that we should just drive off? cause we might get attacked? hah, makes so much sense that we're paranoid.

bleeding lady was seriously on drugs or something. i forgot to mention this in my post but she kept offering me her wedding ring and link card.. like wtf why would i want that?

yea i remember that. my parents still continually send me emails of all these stories about women getting tricked and whatever when they are driving alone at night.

link card you can use for food and stuff. from what i remember, its like food stamps.

the wedding ring however you could have pawned? maybe?
