you caught me in mah' birthday suit!!!
so, this morning i was just out of the shower, in my room, starting to get ready for work. all of the sudden, i heard glass breaking from the vacant/unrented room in our house. i heard someone coming towards my room, so for some reason i assumed that someone was hurt, or just didn't quite know what to think just yet.
well, i'm standing there, reaching for my doorknob, when a short little dude in a blue t-shirt and spiked black hair opened my bedroom door. being totally nude, i covered my junk with my hand. (i wish i could say that both hands were required, but hey, i just got out of the shower, okay? ; P) i was like "WTF?!", and the guy just said "OH SORRY SHIT!" and went back from whence the noise came.
well, a moment later, i hear "WHAT THE FUCK?! WHY'D YOU BREAK THAT WINDOW?! YOU NEED TO SIT DOWN!!!" apparently, the landlords and an associate were nearby when all of this went down, as they were next door rehabbing another house they're going to rent out just like they do with this one. things seemed to be quiet for a few moments, when this intruder apparently started dashing away. well, he only got a block away when one of my landlords totally fucking chased him down and threw him up against a fence. he was then dragged all the way back to our lawn, where my landlords and their associate contained the intruder until the cops could get there.
it wasn't even 5 minutes before 4 police cruisers and an ambulance were on the scene. i dunno if this dude got cut up coming through the broken window or what, but something tells me that the police presence had something to do with a sheriff living about a block from here.
of course, since this went down this afternoon, all the different ways this all could have panned out have gone through my mind. had he showed up only minutes earlier, he would have gone right into my unlocked bedroom. seeing as he was likely already fleeing when he tried to charge through my room, i don't know if he would have taken the time to steal any of my belongings, but he sure could have. the laptop i'm using to make this entry right now probably would have been the most likely victim of his lifty hands, given that scenario.
i'm also thinking that he might not have been fleeing when he came towards my room. y'see, we just had a tennant move out a couple of weeks ago, and he was sort of a shifty, weird dude. i know that he used coke and crack on occasion, for example. i don't think it would be entirely unthinkable that he could have informed an associate of his that i had thousands of dollars worth of dvds in two easy-to-carry cases sitting in my bedroom. unlikely, but not out of the question, really.
of course, i was dying to get to work and tell all of my co-workers about it, seeing as it was the most exciting thing that's happened to me in a while, which is sort of sad, in a way. as you can imagine, everyone was wildly entertained by my being naked as a jaybird when this went down, and i agree. i love absurd shit like that, myself.
well, as the cops were talking him down, processing him and whatnot, i rode by on my bike and just gave him a disappointed glare. of course, who's to say he recognized me in all of those clothes. perhaps i should have given him a hint, and said something like "YOU'RE GOING TO SEE A WHOLE LOT OF NAKED MEN FRESH OUT OF THE SHOWER WHERE YOU'RE GOING, DUDE!!!"
