Its too late to call anyone and I really needed to tell someone about this so here goes.
About one in tne morningmy wife and I were watching some Chris Rock on HBO. Out of the blue I think I hear one of my kids crying and pause the TV to check it out. Nothing. They were all sound asleep. No big deal. Me and the wife decide since its paused, we will go take a smoke break. Normally we smoke on the front porch(never inside) but tonite was a tad chilly so we took it out in the garage.
Besides the garage door, we have an access door to exit out the back. Its a hollow core cheap door with a 1 sq foot diamond shaped window. While we were out there, I see something out of the corner of my eye in the window. We are keeping a friends kid tonite and he has lukemia, so my first thought was that the parents needed him , knocked at the front door, then came around back. I start to stand up when a total fvcking stranger presses his face to the window. Keep in mind its 1 am and weve had a rash of breakins around my neighborhood recently. I nearly crapped myself. I yelled for my wife to run inside and thats when the man noticed we were in the garage and commenced to haul ass out of there. I get my gun and go outside while my wife calls 911. 20 freakin minutes later a sheriff shows up, and thanks to the dew on the grass discovers two sets of footprints, tells me he will drive around the block looking for them.
Now its almost 4 am, quiet as can be, and I can't sleep because every little creek the house makes me nervous. I feel angry, pissed and worried at the same time. I don't feel safe in my own home anymore.
Sorry about the rant, but I needed to tell someone.
