America's Most Wanted

had our own little fox reality show last night
around 12:40 am first heard the helicopter.
hear them every now and then
only for a second or 2 then they move on
not last night
it circled our house and neighborhood
spotlight shining down.
wasn't worried at first.
then 15 minutes past.
kept circling
the light was right in our backyard
i kept giving Brian the update
he didn't have his eyes in
but after 20 minutes he broke down
got up to get his glasses
we took turns running from window to window
saw 3 to 4 cop cars driving slowly down our street
"Brian... should we check all the doors and windows?"
they were locked
"should we call the police station? are we in danger?"
40 minutes later
"Jen grab the phone in case we have to call quickly."
60 minutes later the copter seems to be moving a little east
no spotlight now
starts to quiet down
" did you hear that"
"Yes"
"do you think there is someone back there?"
"I don't know"
window check again
Nothing
" i know i heard something"
"Me too"
" could something be hiding in the shed outside?"
"i don't know"
Silence
...Waiting
i don't know if i can fall back to slee.....ZZZZZZZZ
thank God I fall asleep easily
Brian not so fortunate
we call the police dept in the morning
burglary suspect was chased and apprehended
all they would tell us
guess there wasn't anything in the shed:)
