We had a burglar once too. I was so mad that anyone would have the audacity to come into my house that I jumped straight up and starting screaming at him and cussing him out.
He froze right by the patio door, thought it over, and took out running down the hill. Cops wouldn’t even come out to take fingerprints, but said to call again if he came back. Sheesh!
Incredible. Congrats on your pluck!
