Unexpected Visitor

After work this evening I headed out to the grocery store to finish my last minute errands before the parents get here. After walking into my apartment, locking the door and dropping my groceries off in the kitchen, I hear this noise at the front door.

Being the curious person that I am I walked to the door and looked through the peephole to see a man right in front of my door. He then proceeded to try to get his key in my front door. I say tried because he was so drunk that his key kept missing the lock hole and eventually he ended up dropping the key on the floor. At this point I decided I would yell through the door that this wasn't his house. Which worked, he walked away.

But he didn't go too far. Instead he sat on the stoop out front and drunkenly talked on his cell phone. Fine by me, as long as he wasn't trying to get in my apartment anymore. But no, after a few calls he stumbled back into the hallway and tried once again to get into my door. At this point I decided to call the police as he kept trying and trying to open the door. Eventually he walked out and supposedly an Alexandria Police officer was sent out to my neighborhood but regardless it was scary. I have never felt my heart beat so fast!

Good thing I have my parents coming into town tomorrow to protect me!

It's a good thing you lock your door after you get home.
