It's late here and I decided to watch some Invader Zim (got the second season DVD for Christmas) before going to bed. Opening the DVD player, I realized that Ladykillers was due back to the video store in an hour. Since the library is on the way there, and since I prefer the company of Mr.AfterHours drop box to the awkward glances of the librarians, I figured I'd drop off this Sandman Graphic Novel which is due back tomorrow anyway.
So it's late, it's dark, and it's foggy. This makes the empty streets and old Victorian architecture of my neighborhood a little too eerie for my liking. So I get to the library, which at night looks like this:
Right when I get up to the fence, and am about to enter the court yard in front of the building, one of the lights goes out providing me with a new definition of "creepy". So I go up to the door where the drop box is and reach to deposite my books when I realize that in the darkness directly in front of me and beneath my arm is a person. At least this is what I assume as there was a mound of snoring blanket. Sweet Jesus! I've seen a lot of crazy in this town, but it's the "minding his own business sleeping Hobo" that nearly gives me a heart attack.
