well, that was exciting

I was just enjoying the afternoon
playing some silly car racing game on my xbox 360
while I waited for some work files to download

I heard a noise outside
as the door behind me was open
and I paused the game to look over my shoulder

behind me
standing in the open doorway
was one of seattle's finest
gun drawn
aimed in my general direction
but not specific direction

I put down the controller
turning to face him while doing so
so he could see I had empty hands
smiled
and walked outside to talk to him

How can I help you officer?

I look to my right
and see another officer
this one with his weapon holstered
and recognized him

oh hey man, hows it going

he recognized me

and we chatted

apparently a suspicious bag
had been found up the street
with papers inside it with my family's information on it
and
they had come down to return it
where they found the side door open
and the main house empty

they were apparently thinking it may have been a burglary
when they heard my video game
came to check it out

we talked for a while
they filed an incident report
and
what should come up
while doing so?

apparently
there is a detective looking for me
wants to ask me some questions
no warrant or anything
just a note

so I had them call in
and make an appointment for me
with the detective on monday
and I'll swing by to chat

what can I say, I'm fairly intrigued
