Car alarm being set off by the cold?

Oh my GOSH I am getting chills as I write this... I haven't been this scared in years... My eyes are even watering up... Here's the story.

Okay... So my brother tells me right before he goes to bed... that there is this rapist on the loose... but to not tell my little sister... ...and since it's thanksgiving... My dad is sleeping in the basement to make room for the grandparents.

My mom and sister are in the room below me... So that is weird and the idea of some dude looking in through the window at me is freaking me out... so... I head upstairs to where I am now... I was actually writing down my thoughts about how it was almost as if some sort of badness is growing within me (personal thoughts about my own morality) and it was eery... then all of a sudden I hear a car alarm...

Not used to having a car alarm it takes me a while to realize that it could actually be my car. I get up and walk out of the room and notice that the origin of the sound seems to change so it is probably my car.

Knowing there is a rapist on the loose (who knows if he's armed) I do not DARE open the back door to have a look because what if that was his tactic to get some person then shoot em or whatever the heck he would do?

I go in the master bedroom and whisper, "Hey, hey, don't worry, it's Matt." and they wake up. I didn't know my dad was sleeping in the basement, so I thought he'd be in there. Mom said to go get dad in the basement... so I went down there and kept my distance so he wouldn't hit me. I go dad... (I am shivering now...) I look at him.. He has both eyes open and he's not answering.. "DAD!!!" He finally talks to me. He was fine. He looked like a dead person with that blank stare.

I've looked out the window and I didn't see any sign of attempted forced entry...

I'm just wondering if this can happen because I KNOW that car's alarm is total crap (I've tried to set it off... couldn't) and I am terrified...

I reassured my sister and my mom to try to comfort my sister (she is a natural scaredy-cat) but there is noone to reassure me and I feel like a little kid -_-'.

I'm going to go not sleep now... C'mon daylight...

Dude, dont worry about it. Cheap car alarms are activated by the circuit that turns the dome light and interior lights on. It wouldnt have gone off unless someone opened the actual door, in which case you would have noticed.

Dont worry about, and remember, most rapists are sleezy skinny bastards. Go out and pick a fight next time that happens.....

And if you dont work out or you cant fight, bring a bat.....

Hey. Yeah.. it was just one of those nights... the combination of what I was doing and my dad and all just scared the crap out of me.

I'm a bodybuilder and I know Tae Kwon Do so I could hold my own but who cares how big you are when the other guy has a gun and isn't afraid to use it y'know? [img]tongue.gif[/img]
