Within days of when I found out I was vaccinated with a fake flu shot the headline news in the area was the break-ins in this one subdivision. Mine! The burglar would ring the doorbell and if no one answered, he/she would kick the front door in, stealing jewelry, credit cards and money.

They surprised someone at one location and rather than retreating, they beat the crap out of the old man. He's still in the hospital.

The reason I'm telling you all this is because, up until all the break-ins started happening, I blocked off my bedroom door during the day (the break-ins were happening during working hours, so broad daylight) so my dogs wouldn't get on the bed and generally make a mess of my room while I was at work. Once this all came out, I decided to let my dogs get in the bedroom because it's in the front of the house and I figured they could alert any would-be burglars that the house was occupied (the blinds are always open about 5-6 inches so the dogs can look out).

Today was not an exception...despite the fact that there hasn't been a break-in (that I know of) in over a week, I allowed the dogs access to my bedroom while I was at work. When I got home and went into the bedroom I saw something white on the floor near the window. I got closer and realized it was the towel from my bathroom floor (I don't have bathroom rugs so each week when I do towels, I put a different towel out to step on...this week it was the white one). As I went over to collect the towel, I saw my pillow on the floor, propped up in an "L" shape against the night stand.

Next thing I know, I have this image in my head of my dog, Brewsky (not Max), reclining on the pillow with the towel/blanket held up to his chin with one paw while the other one held the TV remote, flipping channels.
