Still Adrift

Speaking.

Someone(s) broke into the shed in our backyard this afternoon and it seems to have happened while I was at home, laying in bed, trying to get some sleep. My dogs were barking like crazy, but I didn't go see what was going on, so now I feel bad cause my dad's weed eater was stolen. Actually part of me feels bad and another part of me is kinda glad I didn't. Cause what if I did and I caught them..hell you never know what might happen. Just a few nights ago a convienent store worker was killed here because he was trying to stop a guy who tried to steal 2 packs of beer. So, I don't know. There's a fence between where my dogs are and the shed, so there was no way the dogs could have gotten to the person(s). My dad is going to leave the gate open on the fence from now on. The only reason we leave it shut now is that there is a family of cats who like to live under my 'car' in the back yard, and we didn't want anything happening to the cats. Hopefully, they'll find somewhere else to go if we start letting the dogs out...I surely don't want to walk out there and find dead cats..that's happened before and I really don't wanna do it again. I'm a little spooked about being home alone, but hopefully things will be fine.
Oh, and brian...if i upset you even more, i am sorry.
