What the...
May. 4th, 2008 01:11 amookaaay...
Just got out of my bath and went to the kitchen sink to get water when I look out the window and two things catch my eye. One, that my car's indoor lights are on, and I know I didn't have them on when I parked.
Second is a very foreign care in the driveway. I know all of the family's cars by their shape and this one is not ours.
So. Clad in my flannel PJ's and sporting a baseball bat my grandfather carved (I'm not stupid. half the drunks in town outweigh me by 40lbs and lift weights. and I've been thankful for the steel-frame door during many a wee-morning-hour encounter) as weaponry, I stalk out like a cavewoman to investigate, grumbling.
Someone had been in my car and realized it wasn't their's but left the light on. And jammed...an unchewed stick of gum into the keyhole. ...the HELL?
After turning off the indoor light and checking for other passengers I locked up the car and investigated the stranger in my territory.
Belongs to a Katherine Heimel I think. Her textbooks were in the back seat and easily visible through the window.
Somebody is gonna get a call from me.
