I`m going to type this here - simply because I can`t believe it happened.

Last night I fell asleep on my couch. I live alone in a townhouse with a garage on the first level. All the lights were off. I was asleep, and I heard the front door open (unlocked - whoops). That woke me right up - but I laid there in the dark. I wasn`t expecting anyone....

Even though I`m not accustomed to people walking into my house unannounced or uninvited at 10pm, I thought it may have been my GF or a friend (who else just walks into your house?). Anyone I know would have called, rang the bell, announced them self at the door, or knocked first.

I lay there listening. I hear footsteps coming up my stairs and realize it`s a man. As he rounds the corner to the top of my steps to the upstairs, I lay on my side ready to jump up.... Then, all of a sudden I see a head with a baseball hat peaking over the top of the landing (I`m on my side peaking over the couch back) - he looks around - but can`t see me (it`s dark & I`m being quiet and still)

Dude comes to the top of the landing and walks in my living room (it`s pitch black)... I own a WW2 German dress fireman`s dagger that I kind of keep on display and kind of keep laying around - but I always know exactly where it is. It`s real and it`s sharp - about a foot long... The dagger was sitting on a table at the end of my couch with some books...

All in a split second I jump up, grab the dagger, pull it out of its sheath - and yell "YO "... Dude is standing in my living room now. So, suddenly he puts his hands up and I start walking towards him with the dagger pointed at him. He starts saying "sorry...wrong house....sorry wrong house".

I follow him down the steps - dagger in hand. He exits out my door. I lock the door and run upstairs to look out the window - but he is gone.

It was crazy. Thought of calling the cops but didn`t.

Lock your doors people.

Prolly. Lolz.

I called my buddy down the street who owns a bunch of guns.

It`s PA so can`t shoot the guy unless he got antlers

They come with every gun purchase in PA.

You should have called the cops but prefer a security system as a basic early warning.

My brother in law, a police officer, said there is nothing like the sound of a pump action shotgun being pumped to break the silence to get their attention.

[RaysWay]

Whoa. I would`ve definitely called the cops to at least have them sweep the area for anything suspicious.

Oh that was your place I walked into by accident the other night? Snap, I would have stayed and talked detailing instead of running away like a little girl had a known. My bad.

Nice Fraggle Rock doll collection by the way. Wouldn`t have expected that from you, Swanic.

In case anyone is curious, (I know I would be)... This is the dagger:

Swanicyouth- Glad things turned out OK.

Might want to give a little thought to your PERsonal SECurity setup (beyond locking the door ), had he been armed and of malicious intent the dagger might not`ve been sufficient. But with any luck it was a one-off situation.

Hey, I like the cat!
