[anecdote] Breaking and Entering

[jrising]

C. came over this evening to work on a project. While she's here, the door bell rings, and I answer it to see my good friend, A. She came, I find out, for her first date with my apartment mate. They leave.

An hour later, there's a flash as something whizzes by and bangs on the ground near me. My thoughts: "What was that? Where did that come from? What *was* that? Hey, that was K. hiding behind the door!" As I'm picking up the chocolate they threw to distract me, in come three friends, J., K., and L., from the *back* of my apartment. They proceed to write a card for me, and disappear back the way they came-- through my bedroom window. Now, hours later, I still can't believe it. They broke into my apartment to give me chocolate. God I love my friends.

Another hour passes and C. leaves and I go over to visit J., K., and L. for a half hour. On the way back, I see that someone has left fast food trash in my recycling bin, so I bring it around to empty it in the trash bins. And I look up and see the shadows of two people (A. and my apartment mate) making out on my living room couch. Knowing them, I'd ruin everything if I came in. Before today, I'd never been in that situation, and before today, I wouldn't have a clue what to do, but now it's obvious. I go around back, and sneak in through my window.

Ah breaking and entering one of the best things to do in all situations. only way to make this better is sneak into your room put on a chicken costume and bust out of your room with a video camera in one hand and a giant kitchen knife in the other shouting "God has witnessed your sins, repent, repent now and beg for his mercy!" oh and cover the chicken costume with stag blood. Its poetry in motion nothing can possibly go wrong.

typo on stage blood (though stag blood would work to if you have access to a stag.
