miss scarlet, in the kitchen, with the mag light.

i came out this morning with a mag light in hand.
heart "a pounding."
eyes wide and crazy.
why?
there was someone in my home.
someone i didn't know.
i think i may have still had one earplug in.
yes, i wear them.
product of dorm life and an airline mom.
now i'm addicted.
back to the mag light.
whoever was in my house was going to get a firm smashing of the skull if they thought they were going to prance into our place.
fight or flight?
fight.
mama bear had to protect her cubs.
that's what i felt like.
so with all of my courage mustered i crept out to the noise.
and what i found made my heart jump!
the scout master.
opening a banana for the pork loin.
babe, next time your early class is cancelled make sure to let me know;-)
that would have been sad to hit you over the head with the mag light.
i can hear it now,
"it was miss scarlet, in the kitchen, with the mag light."
