My cell phone rings at 9:20 p.m.. It's my next door neighbor. He's a cop.

Me: "Hello."

Him: "Are you home."

Me: "Yep."

Him: "Turn on you back porch light."

Me: "Okay."

I walk upstairs and flip on the back light.

Him: "He's gone now."

Me: "Wait...What!?"

Him: "The kids saw a guy in your back yard wearing a dark hoodie. I saw some movement but really couldn't see into your yard when I flipped on my back light. He probably got scared off."

Me: "Thanks. I'll keep an eye on things."

So of course I had to make sure the rest of the house and garage were clear. I never saw anything, but I'm on high alert tonight.
