Break-In

The little building I live in got broken into last night around 1:30am and there was all sorts of commotion going on. It doesn't sound like the guy(s) got anything or even made it into anyone's actual homes but they were in the building. 

I've been watching episodes of Pretty Little Liars on Netflix at night (25 episodes in one 3-day weekend - that's gross) and it's kinda spooky. So at 1:30 when I heard what sounded like someone taking a baseball bat to our metal mailboxes, I thought I was a goner for sure.

I heard people coming out of their units and asking "What was that?" "What's going on?" and then I saw blue and red flashing lights outside... all the while I was standing quietly on my tip-toes watching through the peep hole. I ain't goin' out there. Nu-uh.

So anyway I called my mom and dad this morning to tell them all about it and to tell them what good timing it was that they had just come over and put in a chain lock on my door, and my dad suggested I call the police department to find out what happened. So at lunch, I called the non-emergency line and gave them my information, and just asked if I could have some details. She puts me on hold, and their hold song was "We Are Young" by Fun.

On a police department hold line.

"Give me a second I

I need to get my story straight

My friends are in the bathroom

Getting higher than the Empire State

My lover she's waiting for me

Just across the bar

My seats been taken by some sunglasses

Asking 'bout a scar

And I know I gave it to you months ago

I know you're trying to forget

But between the drinks and subtle things

The holes in my apologies

You know I'm trying hard to take it back

So if by the time the bar closes

And you feel like falling down

I'll carry you home

Tonight

We are young

So let's set the world on fire

We can burn brighter

Than the sun"

Seems a little... risque for a police department, no?

I'm sure they just play music from a local radio station and I just happened to catch it when that song was playing but I couldn't get over the irony. 

Anyway they don't have any details on what happened or who it was. I'm tempted to go down into the basement to see if he/she broke into anyone's storage lockers... but really... it's just my Christmas decorations down there. If homeboy really wants my 6 foot Duchess Spruce that bad he can have it.
