I've never been one of those kids that was freaked out by clowns, mimes or balloons, or weird things like that. In fact, I love anything scary as long as my life is not in any danger. This means that I absolutely LOVE scary movies. Although, I don't love them as much if I lose sleep because of them. Hey, it happens.lol. Or sometimes, I may not lose sleep cause I'm scared but just because I'm thinking about the movie in general.
Last night we watched a movie that I wouldn't classify as scary but it got me thinking about other scary movies as I drifted off to sleep. This is NEVER a good thing as I usually end up having nightmares. Luckily - or not so luckily depending on how you look at it - I didn't have much of a deep sleep so it kept my dreams at bay. At about 4am I ended up getting up to go to the washroom. I turn onto my back in bed and I see this odd shaped thing in our closet which kind of looked like a distorted head. I know that my imagination can get crazy out of control when I'm half asleep and have fallen to sleep with freaky things dancing around in my head. But, I also like to consider myself well aware of my surroundings, especially in my own home. So here I am, 4am, half awake/half asleep trying to figure out what this thing is hanging around in our closet. So I slowly get up, I slowly tip toe over and what do I do?! I poke at it, HARD! Like if it is a person and has eyes, I would GAUGE them out of their sockets! However, to my surprise, it was light and bounced back so I grabbed it to cop a feel. Well low and behold, it was my freakin' birthday balloon!!! lol.
We noticed last night that it's losing air and has been randomly floating around our condo. How it managed to get into our closet?! I have no idea! I could understand if it rounded the corner and ended up in our hallway....but to creep down one whole wall, round the corner of the hallway, get passed the wall of the first closet in our bedroom and then go down the wall and INTO our second closet?! Nearly impossible (and creeeeeeepy) I tell you!!!
To me, what makes this really funny...is that I can only imagine what I would have looked like to the person in the closet if there had actually been someone IN the closet. Like, they would have seen my every move and probably would have broken into MAD fits of laughter watching me drag my big booty out of bed, tip toe over, and attempt to POUNCE on them! The reality is, they would have probably attacked me mid-tiptoe if there was actually someone in there. Why, oh why didn't I think of that as I was having a mild heart attack?!
On the bright side, I possibly burnt a few extra calories with my heart rate so high! :)
