STOP or I'll Shoot!

So I just had the pants scared off me. Well technically they were already off but I digress.

I was, ahem, in the powder room when I heard a loud noise. It was a loud thumping crashing noise. I was immediately alert. It just kept banging and it was so loud I thought someone was trying to break in. Lots of thoughts ran through my head. Fear being the first one. I just thought, this is it, the moment I have always been afraid of has arrived. Someone is trying to break into our house and the fact that they are being so carelessly loud about it means they don't care that we know and instead of just robbing us they are going to viciously maim and kill us. I was terrified and started to shake. My next thought was, oh my gosh we are about to have someone break in and kill us and I'm stuck with my pants down and don't even know where my phone is to call 911.

I yelled for Andy and then suddenly knew what the noise was. I had left the big bundle of balloons from Andy's birthday party in the kitchen they had drifted over and got caught in the fan. Let me tell you, several balloons like that make an awful lot of racket. Scared the poop out of me.

Oh dear, I can't stop laughing! I have had the crap scared out of me lots of times, but not in the literal sense.
