Happy Halloween!

Yesterday morning I was sitting in our basement working on a paper when my housemate and her boyfriend called down to me, "Kathleen, you need to see this."

In the middle of researching, I was reluctant to head up stairs. She said something about blood being on our driveway. Initially, not too concerned. Someone earlier that morning outside our door had mentioned something about someone being "cut by glass." A quick mental sum of the facts, of course there was blood on our driveway. Wait, there was blood on our driveway.

Here's what I saw:
"And there's a bloody handprint on our garbage can." Haha, okay very funny. Have a party, get wasted, scare your neighbours and leave us to clean up the mess. Happy Halloween to us.

But no, it was real blood. Unsure of what to do, we called the police station to be safe. They followed the blood trail to a house nearby. Apparently, a girl had cut her arm and the police had actually already been there to take her to emergency. There was also a bunch of house parties on our street the night before so it wasn't a surprise. So really, not a huge deal.

All we wonder now is why people were hanging out by our side door. Maybe they were so drunk they didn't realize they were at the wrong house. Maybe that's it. Still weird though.

Have a Happy Halloween! Be safe!
