After going to bed last night and falling into a nice deep sleep we were woken up just around midnight with someone ringing our door bell. I’m really not coherent when woken up unexpectedly from sleep and was really disoriented and confused. Jen said, “I think it’s our door bell.” and I was, who the hell is ringing our doorbell at this hour.
When they rang it again, and by ring I they pressed it about five times, we rushed to the door and as I was looking out the peep hole to see who was there Jen said “It’s the police!” She was looking out the front window saw the cruiser parked in front of our house.
I opened the door and the officer standing there said “Sir, I noticed your car door was open, were you aware of that?” Turns out that after coming home from lacrosse practice last night the boys didn’t close their door and I didn’t notice so as the officer was patrolling the neighborhood he saw the light on in the car.
I had to go out and he made me check through the car to make sure nothing was missing “because there have been a number of burglaries in the neighborhood and wanted to make sure everything was in order.” I closed the car door, locked it up and as I was laying in bed about to fall asleep I thought wait a minute, there have been a bunch of burglaries in the neighborhood….
