Flying Ninjas!!
My nightmare has come true!!! It's flying ninjas on the East coast! Ryan sent me this article tonight:
Ninja Invades Williamstown Home
Aug 24, 2005 3:58 pm US/Eastern
WILLIAMSTOWN, NJ. (KYW) Police in Gloucester County, New Jersey, are on the lookout for a suspect who broke into a home early Wednesday wearing a ninja suit.
Officials say the armed man cut the phone line to a Williamstown home, entered the residence, and then tied up the male owner.
The ninja got away with the victim's wallet and a change jar. The wallet was later found on a nearby jogging path.
Police were able to recover fingerprints from the door of the home and other objects.
Contact police if you have any information that can aid in this investigation.
For those of you who don't know about my FEAR of being attacked my flying ninjas...well now you know. I have a fear of flying ninjas. It was always a joke that everyone used to make fun of me about, but there was seriously one day when I thought my apartment was being broken into during work, by flying ninjas...and at the time I dragged my friend from work home with me to attack them with my two snow brushes in the back of my car. As it turned out, something must have just moved my mouse therfore forcing my IM to come back from "idle" status, and we weren't in fact being attacked by flying ninjas.
Anyway, aside from random fears...I had a GREAT night tonight. Actually, it was a pretty good day, considering I was trying to do things way too fast and didn't have any time to breathe, but still a pretty good and productive day. But anyway, away from work...I babysat for Michael tonight! It's been so long!!! I can't believe that he's already 6 years old! I picked him up from Day care, we went swimming at my moms, took the puppies for a walk and had dinner. It was so much fun :-) He's so cute. He taught my mom and I how to properly hold the leash when walking the dog ;-) and when we were taking the cover off the pool he said: "Beth, your such a kid." (Yes, a 6 year old made this observation and told me!!) and I said: "Why do you say that?" and he replied: "Because you have this funny chair for the pool. You such a kid!". How cute is that?!?! :-) Oh yeah, and when I came downstairs after putting my bathing suit on, I had shorts and a tank top on and Michael goes: "Wow, Beth you look so pretty, you could be my daughter" LOL! My mom and I were in stiches all night with his little comments.
Anyway, when I brought him home we started the evening routine. Bath time, story, and finally off to bed. His mom came home in the middle, but he made me finish the entire routine. Including reading him a book and tucking him in bed. Afterwards, like always Wendy and I got to talking and ended up talking until 10:30PM. Unfortunately, my cell phone doesn't work in her house, so I didn't hear the rings when Seymen and Chrissy called. I thought I'd be done by 9PM, and told Seymen so. Well he got nervouse (Yup!! Just like I do!!!) that maybe I died, and so he called my sister, and then my sister got nervouse, and then my mom got nervouse. When I finally made it out to my car, I had a ton of missed calls and a voicemail from each, wondering where I was! I felt so loved :-)))
