More weird shit

Another birthday party that I'm roped into attending.  By "roped in" I mean I'm a Dad taking care of two kids and that's kind of what you have to do if you're going to be spending time with your children. The birthday man is turning 5 and I'm bringing the 4 and 6 year old Fightmaster's, they're ready to party!

I show up to the party and the kids immediately start entertaining themselves on the trampoline.  That's one of the great things about kids parties is you can finally relax a little while they leave you alone to go have some fun with their friends.  I make a b line for the food and start stuffing my feelings with a sandwich while washing it down with some diet pepsi.  Now it's a party.

Right when I'm getting my party on I notice that the parents are herding all the kids into the house.  I suddenly spot a police officer coming down the side of the house and he yells at me, "Get in the house!"

There's 8 cop cars out front.  The place is surrounded.  Apparently some guy exposed himself to some girls at the park a little bit ago and the police thought he was hiding somewhere near the party.  This mother starts explaining to me what happened and then she asks me, "What sort of a thrill do you get from exposing yourself to a little girl?"  Why are you asking me this lady?  My friend later told me that I look like someone who might know the answer to that question.

The cops now think the perp is hiding in this ladies house next door.  The swat team has arrived, guns are out.  The lady starts shaking and crying.  Her dogs are in the house and she's worried.  Three hours we're sequestered in this home while the cops prepare to go in and get this guy.  It takes three hours to learn there's no one there, he got away.

I ate some cupcakes, ice cream and a bunch of candy after that and then came home and took a nap.  This has been another day in the life of yours truly.
