My pest control man came by yesterday. Before he left he said that he and his wife saw me and my family at Wally world on Saturday. Well actually he heard my voice and turned to see us leaving. At first I didn't think much of it. Then my girly mind got to thinking.....How was he able to recognize my voice over the other people in Walmart? Is my voice shrill? Grating? Annoying? I know it wasn't my phone sex operator voice I only use those powers for good not evil! I talk to this guy once a month for maybe 20-30 minutes. I'm sure he just has a fantastic memory because my voice couldn't be annoying. Right?
If I find one more pile of cat poo in my back yard I'm gonna start trapping cats! One of the reasons we don't have a dog is because I don't want to clean up after it, AND YET I still have crap in my yard. ARG!
Chatty neighbor tried to talk over my daughter today. That makes me angry! I ignored neighbor and listened to my daughter till she was finished. Neighbor gave up. YAY!
Something that irks me to no end is people who fawn over my son but ignore my daughter. I understand that little kids are cute. That doesn't give you an excuse to pretend like my daughter isn't there. Saturday we were at home depot and the cashier gave my son stickers and chatted with him and didn't say a word to my daughter. RUDE!

I have kittens in my yard too, let me know if you figure something out. My work's thrift store that I helped get funding for is named Bits and Pieces.
Aw, that's rough! I like talking to all kids - they crack my stuff up!
Cxx
i wouldn't be worried about the voice thing. There are just some voices that are distinguishable above all others. There is a woman that I have worked with for years mainly over the phone. If I saw her in person I would recognize her voice before her face...
I hate cats and their poop, and I hate your chatty neighbor. I also hate people that dote on one kid and not another. I have always believed in being fair to all children. How Rude!
hey OGO's daughter.....hi, how are ya? You are lucky to have the mommy and daddy you have, ya know, bet you do.
I seriously would not be worried about what a guy who kills bugs for a living thinks : )
I think that some people have very distinctive voices, I know that I do.....If he talks to you for about 30 minutes each month, there is no reason to think that he wouldn't recognize your voice....It's nice to be recognized...
I love cats and really don't mind the poop...as long as I don't step in it.
When people are talking to someones children, they should acknowledge all of them and not talk excusively to just one.
I wouldn't worry about your voice, it could be something as simple as your accent especially if you're not originally from Louisiana. I don't think I have an unpleasant voice but I have a northern English accent and every time I open my mouth I give away the fact that I'm "not from round here"!
I hate cat crap,well i hate cats but them crapping in my garden realy winds me up..
myutopia- I love thrift stores! My mother in law got me to try them out.
Claire- People would find that my daughter is a kick if they'd just talk to her!
Funky Bee- I knew you'd have my back!
Edge- My daughter just happened to be reading over my shoulder when I got your comment. It made her smile! Thanks!
Chick-Not so much worried as bewildered.
Lucy- I enjoy cats to. I have two of my own but they don't poop in my neighbors yard!
Mrs. Thistletwat-I hadn't thought of that! You know, he mentioned when we first talked that I sounded like his friends in Colorado. THAT'S WHERE I'M FROM! You are so smart! Mystery solved!
Barnze- I knew you'd have something to add! *wink*
That is rude. She must have been the baby of the family. The rest of us would know better.
If your "pest control man" knows your voice, then maybe he thinks you're cute...that's really the only reason a man has to remember anything, right?
I have 4 cats and I don't allow them to wander the neighbourhood and crap in other people's yards. That's just being a bad pet owner.
