So I’m wandering through my house tonight, on my way downstairs with a basket full of laundry, when I notice odd things happening outside.
Like flashing lights and some dude prowling around my neighbor’s yard with a flashlight.
The lights were reflecting off the house around the side of the house, so I couldn’t tell if it was an ambulance or a cop car or what… only flashing red lights (no blue), so I’m assuming it was either a fire truck or an ambulance. And no sirens, so probably nothing really crazy.
But the dude with the flashlight creeped me out. He was flashing his light around into my neighbor’s yard, so I came over to the side of the house to get into the best possible “spying on the neighbors” viewing position. By the time I get there, and the flashing lights are gone and dude is nowhere to be seen.
I chalk it up to general weirdness and come back to the front of my house, only to see a guy (same one, maybe?) walking on the sidewalk directly in front of my house pointing at something past my house.
I’m already slumming in my pj’s (the comfy kind, not the cute kind), so no way am I going to go out there and see what’s up… bad time to finally introduce myself to the neighbors.
To top it all off, I’m well into the murder mystery book I’m reading right now, which already has me on high alert. So now, I’m sitting here, reading this book that gives me goosebumps, imagining noises, and waiting for some prowler to creep through my yard.
Good thing Wicket is here to protect me.
Yeah, right.
I think you and Brandon need a shotgun in the house. You should be able to pick one up fairly cheap.
I disagree completely with Josh. A shot gun is way too drastic. What you need is a 38 revolver.
