I am so fed up today!! last night around midnight, when my husband and I were in bed and almost asleep, we heard this loud banging noise. We sat up and thought it might be the dryer, but I was only drying clothes and they were done long before. So my husband said "it's the front window". So instantly I'm terrifed. He wants to go out and check it out and I told him NO! Cause who knows who it was/could have been??
We snuck into the spare bedroom and looked out the window and there were kids riding their bikes past and one "hiding" by a tree, pulling on a string that was somehow connected to a rock and our window. So he'd pull and it would bang. At that point I stopped being scared and started being MAD!!! I went online to find the non-emergency police number (information was "busy"), and I told the police what was happening. They sent a cop car by but by that time the kids had run off. We saw the car driving around so hopefully the kids ran off.

My husband wanted to chase them and "talk" to them, but I said it wasn't a good idea to get charged with assault from whatever deadbeat parents are ok with their 14 year old kids riding their bikes after midnight!! Ever heard of CURFEW?? I almost want them to come back so we can catch them. They did this once before only it was our bedroom window and my husband DID chase them that time, but didn't catch them.

So i was so keyed up and mad I barely slept, and when I did, I dreamed of violence, which I NEVER do!!!!

Sorry, I just had to vent. I don't get these kids---maybe I was a goody two-shoes but I would have never done something like that by myself. It's a good thing I wasn't home alone (which I am often), I probably would have called 911 and felt bad about it.
Luckily I have work at home and was planning to leave early for my first GI doc appt, so I'm just going to work at home this morning.
