A Friday Night Adventure

So Friday night a group of us met in Frisco to watch the Roughriders baseball game, fireworks and all. Great fun. Kathleen and I got back to the apartment around 11 and were excited about getting some decent sleep for a Friday night, a definite step up for us. However, we soon discovered that the night was still young. The following is a compiled list of 10 things we learned from 11:00, when we arrived home, til 12:30 when we finally got inside our apartment...

1. Don't deadbolt your front door and exit out the garage... without the garage door opener.
2. Don't let your third roommate take said garage door opener to Oklahoma for the weekend.
3. Watch out for the suspicious guy with a mask stapled to the back of his hooded sweatshirt.
4. Always call for backup, even if backup is no bigger than you are.
5. Ask Officer Tubby if you need to know anything about the latest movie releases.
6. Possums are bigger than beagles; therefore, don't attempt to trap them.
7. Don't lay on the grass or live in the Gate Apartments: dogs have left their mark on these places.
8. Do it yourself: don't rely on the maintanance man to show up, cause he never will.
9. Lift the garage door at the same time as you pull the key release.
10. Never underestimate the likelihood of an adventure with the Smith Security officers.
