Quick story of my afternoon excitement. If you know me as the wussie-chick that I am, you'll laugh.

I'm on the puter while talking on the phone..next door neighbor's home alarm goes off..they're at work so this is out of the ordinary..their 3 - count 'em - 3 - bassett hounds are howling..I'm in my white nightie (because I live in freedom at 3:30pm pacific time) but figure I can just put a shirt on over it and inconspicuously tiptoe over to see what's up..I phone my neighbor at work and she gives me the garage code and the alarm code..I go in to the house - leaving the garage and access doors open - and check out the house and wait for the alarm company call which never comes - here come the hounds!!! past me and out the door and down the street..mind you, I'm in my nightie running down the street after them when I finally remember the code name they *always* heed, yelling it and *finally* they come after me..I lead them in the house, close the doors, reset the alarm and come home. As I'm about to close my front door I notice the guy across the street laughing. Oh dear me..

You may now laugh. Has *anyone* ever done anything like this? Color me embarrassed.

LOL! That's hilarious, tiggy!

Too bad your neighbor didn't have a camera. ;)

"Has *anyone* ever done anything like this?"

Yes but not quite so much in public. I ran up to my inlaws house (we lived on the same property at one time) to get them to call 911 when we awoke to our car on fire. I had on a T-shirt and underware.
