A friend of mine at work told me of an older gentleman who comes into her floral shop once a month to buy flowers. He's a pilot, owns his own plane and aldo drives a charter bus. They got into a conversation about cats. He found a cat who was pregnant and took her in. The kittens were born on April 4th. He needed advice as to when they could be adopted, etc. She got his name and number and gave it to me.

I called him to offer my advice (ONLY!!!!) on the mama and kittens. Since his airplane is stored at a hangar in Grosse Ile, I suggested he call the Grosse Ile shelter and talk to Lora, which he did. She is taking in the kittens when they're ready to be adopted.

Anyway, he SEEMS like a nice man. But, he asked me if I could use a man in my life and asked me out to dinner. I was a bit taken back by his directness. I figured what harm could it do.

Well, he had to cancel dinner at the last minute because of a charter he had to drive to Kalamazoo. No problem. This guy, who I have never met before, calls me at work from his hotel room!! My supervisor was sitting next to me. I politely tried to tell him NOT to call me at work, and gave him my home number. He proceeded to say, "This is the most luxurious hotel room I've EVER been in, complete with jacuzzi!" "God I miss you and wish you were here with me!"

This guy is scaring the living crap outta me. I told all my friends and relatives that I am screening my phone calls through my answering machine. If they need to get hold of me, call my cellphone. At least that has caller id on it.

So, what do you think??? Is this guy gonna leave a bunny boiling on my stove??? I really do not like his pushiness.
