Which made his little forray into the inner sanctum of a clothing rack at the Osh Kosh outlet store in Kansas City that much more exciting for my blood pressure when I turned around and he was literally nowhere to be seen. Scenes from that early 80s movie Adam where the kid was abducted from a Florida Wal-Mart flashed before my eyes as I tried vainly to remember in composite sketch detail every face I'd seen at the outlet mall that day.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15513876.post-30404959646758181412006-12-28T10:11:00.000-06:002006-12-28T10:11:00.000-06:00I still can't sleep with any closet doors open, be...I still can't sleep with any closet doors open, because at least I would HEAR the monster coming out if they were closed.<br /><br />And where I live, the fear of being randomly stabbed is not irrational. It happens all the time. It has happened at two malls I frequent, and also, my friend's sister was stabbed at the harbor one day when she was a tweenager. But I never fear it, because I give people plenty of personal space. They would have to lung for me, heh. And then I would scream so loud their ears would bleed and they'd be reduced to pudding. So really, they'd get their just desserts.
