guy on a ladder

my room has four large windows and i'm home alone right now. on my way in i noticed a ladder proped up against the front of the house. i guessed it probably belonged to bryan who i thought may be taking down our christmas lights because it's april (Christ wasn't really born until april- so bryan thought it appropriate to leave the lights up for a few more months). anyway... I had just sat down to check my email when there arose such a clatter. i looked out my window and saw a strange man on a ladder. i was pretty startled. i almost just pulled the blinds up really fast but instead, i opted for a more incognito peak trough the blinds. i didn't want him to be scared and then fall off like in this infomercial:


i soon realized that he was just taking some measurements-hopefully to replace our super trashy windows and not in preparation for an upcoming break in. yikes.

Haha... I saw that video in the Fail Blog a while back. So funny! Good luck with the new windows or whatever the measurements amount to.

The three best anti-theft devices are narrow windows, avocado colored appliances, and Macaulay Culkin.
