On Stalkers
Jess and I have a stalker -- last year he started following us around, eating meals with us, ambushing us wherever he saw us. The creepy thing here is that last year Jess and I lived on two different quads and rarely saw each other, and HE lived on yet a THIRD quad, so he has to have gone out of his WAY to have stalked either of us, and it was REALLY weird that he was stalking us both.
This year, Jess and I live in the same suite, and HE lives in the same BUILDING.
We try hard to avoid him when we see him, because he's scary. This evening as we went down to dinner, Jess said that earlier today he cornered her in the elevator and talked at her a disturbing amount, even suggesting coming up to pay her a visit once. This evening Val and I came back from dinner, and we were waiting for Laura to hand in her keys to the deskpeople. And the stalker was THERE.
Just as he walks past, Laura tells us we don't have to wait for her. So the stalker hangs around at the elevators and holds it for us. He's staring at me. When we ignore him and don't move, he tries to ask if we're going up. We three of us bumble about, all of us saying basically that we're a bit confused and he should go on. He insists that no, it's no problem, he's just going up to his room -- as if we had SUSPECTED that he was going to, say, Chicago on an important business meeting via the elevator.
We finally manage to convince him to go up without us, but he keeps leaning out to peer around and give us suspicious glances.
When he's gone, Val points out, "At least he didn't say, 'I was just going up to YOUR room'."

Yucky Stalkers...Shall we commit homicide?
*hugs Kay* Ack! Stalker sitings are a bad bad thing! He actually did that?!?! Holy Monkey Toes! I can't believe it! I thought my run in with him today was bad, but that was horrid. But at least you had Val and Laura there with you. *shudders and mumbles "unclean! Unclean!"* I was all by my lonesome. I think we need to do something about this...like maybe some killing? You get the poison, I get the baseball bat? *evil grin* Let me know on the killing, 'k?

Well, it'd be better to try to keep in groups lately then. It's always safer in groups than alone.
I really advise against talking to him too. Scary.
