Police Presence

There I was snoozing away, cozy in my bed like a little bug in a rug. Suddenly I'm awake and I'm not sure why. And then I open my eyes and my bedroom is lit up by flashing blue and red lights. There's a cop just outside our house with a car pulled over. It's 10:45. I have no idea what was going on and I didn't recognize the car. I watched for a while, even got some binoculars to try and see what was what but the lights flashing nearly sent me into a seizure. I mean, dude! Turn that shit off! It's 11:00 and people are trying to sleep. 

Here's what I did see: I saw 1 person walking toward the cops, seemed like a male, maybe a kid? Then I saw a pair walking to the cop as well. Seemed like two girls, possibly one was my neighbors kid but I can't be sure. I wondered if these were kids who'd gotten caught ding dong ditching. It's been a problem in this area of late. The weird thing was the car that got pulled over was eventually let go. The cops, however, stayed for another 15 minutes or so. It looked like they were continuing to talk to whomever had been walking around outside. 

Here's my theory: I think the kids were ding dong ditching. The owner of the car pulled over was one of their "victims". The owner of the car got in their car to chase the kids down. The kids got scared and called the cops. The cops came and bing bang boom, Muir's awake at 11:00 and can't get back to sleep! Thanks dumb ass kids! Again, that's just my theory and until I know it's wrong, I'll assume it's a pretty good one. 

However, here's Jim's theory (his might be a bit more realistic): Jim thinks the kids were ding dong ditching, the owner of the car called the cops and went out looking for the kids and the cop met up with them. That does seem more likely since, as Jim said, kids aren't going to call the cops. Either way, dumb ass kids waking Muir up when she's all cozy in her bed. 

Oh, and by the way, with all this going on and me in and out of bed (getting binoculars, looking out the window, trying to find a better view of the shituation), Boo and Scout? Sacked out. Not a peep. They were hunkered in their pillows under their covers snoozing. I mean they bark a questionable leaf in the yard and when the cops are there with a potential shake down going on they're quiet as mice. 

The effects of prednisone have started to wear off and I'm sort of sad. This morning yoga wasn't as achy free as it has been and I'm developing a headache. Dang it! 

Man will I be happy when this election primary is over. The latest commercial on Bernie Moreno was a doozy. Apparently there are stories about him soliciting men for "1-on-1 sex" from 2008. The story is that he had an account created using his email address, name, birthdate and address for his parents house in Florida. Of course Moreno's attorney said that it was an intern that did it as "a joke". Funny. Regardless, this is a good lesson that anything on the internet NEVER GOES AWAY! Either way, he's a douche. 

Okay time to get a move on. Happy Tuesday! Jim's working a sort of 2nd shift tonight so I'll be eating leftovers. Later!
