11:20 pm.
As I'm looking out the upstairs bedroom window, I see it: a creepy shadow with a light. I run down the stairs and bark. Nothing. I bark again. Nothing. I bark louder. Finally! Single Girl comes down the stairs and says, "You need to go potty again? We were just out!"
I run to the door and wait for her to hook me up. (At night she puts me on a leash so I don't sniff adventure for 20 minutes.) Out the door we go! I'm pulling her behind me as I run to the backyard.
"Come On!" I bark. There it is! I see it. The creepy shadow with the light. She doesn't see it yet and is still talking to me about going potty.
I alert the whole neighborhood that there is something strange going on! I don't let up. Single Girl still doesn't see it! (I think it's selective sight.) "HELLO!!! CREEPY THING WITH A LIGHT!!!"
Finally after screaming it at her she sees it! She tells me that it's a guy checking his tomato plants. I don't believe it! Why would he be doing it with this little light? I keep letting the neighborhood know the scoop!
All of a sudden, the shadow moves and a big bright light turns on. The creepy shadow now looks like a human and goes through a door. He's gone. I let everyone know what has happened. Single Girl keeps yelling at me, "No bark!" and taps my face. Why? I MUST LET EVERYONE KNOW THAT THE NEIGHBORHOOD IS CLEAR OF ALL CREEPY THINGS!
I do a watch for a minute or two and everything seemed well so I lead Single Girl back into the house.
Back upstairs I go to the window: yep, the creepy thing with a light is gone! Crisis Averted.
Ruff, Ruff!
