Okay! Are you ready for a creepy story?! Well, this morning at 11:15 (I consider it morning ever since I've been sleeping until 11, at least), I heard my door bell ring. Now no one was supposed to be here, so I was a bit confused. It's kind of hard to explain my house, but it's like one of those things where there's a front door, and then an entrance hallway and some stairs, and then another door to actually get into the house. I don't usually lock the front one because I'm too lazy to get out my keys TWICE. )) Anyway, I looked out the little peep-hole thing, and there was a Mexican man standing there! I looked outside, and there was an old, beat up car there as well. I shut off the TV, ran into my bedroom, and called my mother to make sure that no maintenance guys were going to be here (we had like heat and water problems last week...)! She said that there weren't, and as I was on the phone with her, the Mexican hit the door bell AGAIN. Now, I was really freaked out, and it's not like I was going to open the door. He had gone up two flights of stairs and in through a CLOSED door to get where he was, and I've never had anyone do that before. Next, I looked outside and there was ANOTHER man who had walked way back onto my property (my bedroom is in the very back of the house, and when I looked out the window, he was directly under me). He looked up and *saw* me. I slammed the shade shut immediately and went around pulling all the rest down too. When I looked back out, he was gone, the guy at the peep-hole was gone, and the car (with a 3rd person sitting in there) wasn't there either! I called the police, and the cutest little old cop that I've ever seen in my life came over and I filed a report. He was ready to put a detail at the outside of my house because he was like "That's not right. I'm a police officer and even though this came in as a 9-1-1 call, I STILL would have never gone past that front door." I know that it doesn't sound bad, but to see those kind of people in this kind of community and how far he walked into my house (I mean, it wasn't like he was standing on my front porch, he had to walk in through closed doors, and up stairs and everything), it was really odd. They think that he was probably going to rob me. Oh I should mention that my car wasn't in the driveway (I let me friend borrow it because it's not like I can really drive with my back injury anyway.), and they left as soon as they saw someone was home. My house is also the biggest one on the street... So, you do the math.
What do you all think? Do you think they were going to rob me? Should I be scared? I have people at my house with me now, so I'm in no immediate danger, but I've been home alone (and will continue to be for a while), while everyone else is at work and I am home because of my back problems...
