So I was swing my coil in this old yard today. It is a home from the 1800s and the owner has fixied it into apartments which he rents by the week I think... Anyway I was digging a quarter out in the side yard and I heard talking. I looked up at the kitchen window and I saw a guy and a girl looking out at me so I waved. Well, in a moment this really skanky looking girl was out on the porch and asked me if I was finding anything. I told her, no, I hardly ever find anything here but it's fun and I keep looking. Then she point's up toward the upper corner of the house and say's... "You can find something up in that bedroom right there"...

OMG.... I acted like I didn't hear her and kept digging. I moved away from that part of the house and stayed near the street. That made me really uncomfortable. I guess some folks like that stuff but I thought it was unwelcomed and intrusive. I am going to ask Joe, the owner, if he is getting a cut of the action. My wife's office is right across the street too. She didn't like it one bit. It's not a bad neighborhood, or at least it wasn't...

Laff...

There is so many good come backs you could have said at that time. Some thing like " I am close enough to hell every scoop of dirt I pull out now, I dont need to get any deeper" or " is it made out of metal?" " let me ask my Wife" or " DO I need a shovel?" or " Let me get a flashlight incase I fall in". " Is there poison ivy up there". " "I think I need a bigger coil". or " I dont do grave yards"
You did the right thing by getting away. I had a girl ask me at the store as I was buying some beer if I needed help drinking it? I looked down at the 6 pack and looked up and said " I think I need more beer" I think she took it as she was that ugly I needed more to be with her. I didnt realize what I said until I walked out. I actually ment there was not enough for 2 people..

FWIW, she moved out the next week. (Yea...)

that's why I try to say nothing... I always think "Why did I say that...".

Anyway, as long as you didn't let her help, you did good, unless you're like 19 or something.

and i'm not...
