So, I did something to my monitor that makes all the text itty bitty small. Or some setting, probably not the monitor. I'll ask Bob later. In any case, I can't really read over to edit after I'm done, so what I type is what you get.
Last night, I got really freaked out by something. I want to tell you, that this is not one of my stories where I try to freak everyone around me out. For one thing, I'm not there to see your reaction, so if it was a ploy for freak out factor, it would be ruined for me. Ruined!
Anyhow, last night I was taking out the garbage. I was heading back up the walk to my house when I hear a noise. A very whispery hissy noise. Hhhhahhhhh-ssssh-sh-sh-shshhhhhhh. I turned toward the sound and there was a guy standing on the sidewalk looking at me. He was holding one hand up as if to tell me to stop. My heart ramped up to about 10,000 beats per minute and I rushed my ass in the house and locked the door. My heart actually just got going again typing that.
It might not seem that freaky, but imagine yourself in that situation. I can't seem to describe it any better then that either. Grr!
I'm a scary movie watcher. Like many others, I groan at the parts that try too hard, and jump at the good ones. The ones that get me the most though are about crazy people either killing or doing crazy things to 'normal' people. 'Cause I know there are crazy people out there, whereas, previously dead people in the form of ghosts, zombies etc...I'm still a skeptic. When I see one, then those movies will probably scare me more. Same goes for genetically mutated, on purpose or otherwise people.
Hey, at least I didn't turn to freaky sound guy and say, "Hey! What was that about huh?" and start walking toward him. That would have been scary movie fodder. The guy could have been trying to freak me out, or maybe he was a crazy gut that thought he was a sprinkler. I really can't say. I can say, it was not the sprinkler, so don't suggest it! In any case, when I looked at that person, I didn't get a "Oh, he's just on the phone with someone." or a "Holy shit, that guy thinks he's a sprinkler! Ha!" vibe at all. It really just scared the crap out of me.
Anyway, Bob went outside and looked around and the guy was nowhere to be found.
So...what do you think?
