i just had the scare of my life

so i'm sitting here 1am... the g/f is asleep in the bedroom...

and all of a sudden i hear *crack*

so i stop moving, and listen

*BANG*

WTF?

go into the room where the g/f is sleeping... shes still out cold... it wasn't her...

grab the swiffer, cuz its the only thing i could find quikc
finally grab the butcher knife and turn on all the lights outside

do a round
nothing
no windows cracked, no one outside

*BANG*

WTF?!

well, my dumbass totally forgot that i turned the auto icemaker on in the freezer tonight. didn't realize it was turned off till i tried to get ice tonight and it was all empty. it was the ice falling into the container for the fridge iemaker

i was all shook up... had to have a cigarette. i thought i was about to have to stab some fool.

ROFL... Welcome to the world of being a homeowner... When every noise scares the shit out of you until you realize what they are...

The one that aggravates me in peoples homes.... The low battery click on the smoke detectors... I ALWAYS say something to them...

haha that sounds like something that would freak me out too.

Just wait for the creaks, squeaks, furnace bangs and other noises that take awhile to get used to...

ha ha.. i had a similar incident. Wife was gone on business and im sleeping.. i hear a loud bang and a crack and in my sleep i determined it was my door being kicked in. So i reach around my bed in the bed holster and grab my glock 23. Slide my dresser away from the wall and im tucked behind in firing position ready to waste the person that comes around my doorway. Well my wife wasnt expected to be home for another 2 days but to make sure i start saying our "safety phrase" a phrase we use to make sure its not one another and we dont shoot each other. So no answer.

After about 10 mins of waiting and not hearing anything, i grab a flash light in one hand and my pistol in the other. and start clearing rooms. Finally get to the kitchen and find a broken inner ceramic crock pot basin. I had made chili and it slide off my sink (cause the dishes were piled up) and broke on the floor.

Almost killed me a kitchen appliance.

Fixed.

But seriously, I was house sitting in a large home a few weeks ago. Every noise I heard would scare the crap out of me. Then I figured out that there were raccoons out at night, so I felt a little better.

Funny story B. Lol'd like a mofo.

So me and the woman was sitting on the couch and heard the ol' Bang ! WTF was that, I grab the baton and went out side. BOOM BANG BANG BANG. The trashcan was going crazy. I knew there was something in there(just didnt know what) and I really didnt want to open the lid to find out what was going to be jumping straight out full force to attack me. So I just sit 2 wheels w/ tires on top of the lid. 2 days later I opened it up and found me a HUGE Raccoon. This thing was the size of a dog. How in the hell it got in there. IDK. But he def fell in the wrong one this time.
