Being as I'm alone all the time at night, and now a mother, I get a little freaked out when I hear noises and things out of the ordinary.
Last night I had a headache before I went to bed, so I took a Tylenol PM. When I take that I am usually OUT, and the only thing that wakes me up is Byron (You know the Mother Spideysense). Anyway, last night at like 2:15am I woke up to some booming base, and thought it was coming from my living room. That's how loud it was. We live in a semi-rural neighborhood, so nights are usually quiet. I got up out of bed, and not that quickly either. I opened my back door and looked out. There was a white car driving around our loop going less than 10 mph with music blaring. Usually if something like that happens they turn into the neighbors driveway (they have 2 teenagers.) This one didn't, so I quickly turned on the porch light and it sped up and drove off.
It creeped me out, so I called Ryan. (A benefit of having a husband that drives all night...I can call him whenever.) He said a few nights last week he left the house between 12am and 2am and there were people standing in the road with their car parked in front of the house being built across the street. People our age, which we are really young for this neighborhood.
So I called the sheriff and asked them to do a patrol. I've never called them before. Now I'm all skeezed out, and thinking about setting my alarm to wake me up at 2am to watch and see if the car drives by again. Obviously no one would blast their music while they were trying to rob someone, but that doesn't mean they won't be back.

Are you packing heat yet? I know you don't like guns but you should seriously consider it for personal protection.
Who said I don't like guns? I do prefer them locked up, but I don't mind guns. I'm thinking about getting a .22 pistol with a bedside safe! haha The neighbors and I think it's drug deals going down in our neighborhood, because it's quiet and out of the way.
