Someone tried to break into my house today.
 

That's just about enough excitement for one lifetime...I'm going to go have a mild heart attack now.

FUCK!!!!

what happened?

it wasn't sway, was it??????

People in Missouri have stuff to steal?

soybean stockpiles??

Well I was at my dad's, watching a movie downstairs, and I hear a sound coming from my brother's room (which is also downstairs), so I go in and I see the shadow of someone (through the blinds covering the window) trying repeatedly to open the window...well I ran like hell upstairs to my room, locked the door, and called my dad at work. In the meantime, I keep hearing strange noises coming from the basement, so I figure that whoever it was actually came inside the house and was walking around. Once my dad got there, we both went downstairs and I told him what happened. He opened the blinds on the one window and saw that the screen had been knocked out, but the window was locked. He checked the second window in the room and it was unlocked, and partly opened. We both went around the rest of the house, armed with golf clubs, checking all the doors and hiding places and everything. We didn't find anything else out of the ordinary. My dad left, and I left shortly after that and now I'm at my mom's.

It was the meter man. Come to read the water meter, silly. That's all.

Oh aren't you both cute.

you guys didnt call the cops??????????????

&

you think stalker or junkie??

hahahahahahahahaha.

seriously, luxy, i'm glad all that happened was you getting scared.

Again... Missouri has junkies!?

Yeah, stalkers I might figure for Missouri, given the lack of other entertainment. But H?

Sorry to hear that lux, thank (desired entity) you are okay.

Nope, no cops. My mom said the same thing. But there has been a lot of crime in our neighborhood lately (one couple on our street had their car stolen, and their cat was actually shot and had to have its leg amputated, and a ton of other things happened to other houses too). Most of it has been vandalism, and there have been some things stolen, but nothing as bad as the car/cat incident.

Wow, that reminds me of my old neighborhood, it is getting infested by criminlas again.

Well, meth is an enormous problem in our county.

it would not have been a bad idea to get the cops to get prints. if there's been breaking and entering, you can make a stink & get them to do something. maybe they could identify the perp.

I know, but it's not really my decision, it's my dad's. I have no idea if he plans on doing anything about it.

hmm.... better locks for sure. uau.

my house got broken into 3 times while we were growing up. ALWAYS when we didnt have a big dog--- whenever we had a german shepherd, we were spared.

get yrself a rottweiler?

??

yeah, it is in Iowa, too, actually.

Sorry, I don't mean to make light. Well, yes, I do, but I also send my concern. Glad you're all right.

wow what the fuck?!
thats fucked up

you need to keep your corn ears in a safe place as well.
