curious, indeed. today, i walked into a seldom used
room in our basement to discover two unused rolls of 200 speed
film, a walking stick and an empty bag that would appear to hold
tent paraphenelia. i’m 90 percent positive that these items weren’t
there the last time i went into the room and 100 percent positive
that they don’t belong to me or my wife. i asked kris if she knew
anything about it. she didn’t. odder still, she told me that she
went into the basement last week and discovered the door was open,
but didn’t think much of it at the time as she assumed that i had
left the door open. i didn’t.
i guess the only logical answer is that someone broke into our
house – a house with two large dogs, on a cul de sac surrounded by
elderly folks and stay-at-home-moms, and left some very peculiar
items behind. we bought the house from the son of a woman who had
passed away unexpectedly while returning from a biking expedition
in europe. i have a wacky theory that someone, perhaps a family
member or an old friend decided to return a few items.
maybe it’s not true, but it’ll help kris and i sleep a little
better tonight.
