Excitement

[rkold]

Yesterday while the baby was napping and I was about 15 minutes into pumping someone wrung the bell. I was annoyed because I thought it might wake Adina and I couldn't easily get the door. I peeked out the window and saw some guy on my steps and no delivery truck so I decided to just let it go. I happened to peek out my window when I finished pumping and there was that guy again and this time with the police! I immediately started wondering if somehow my townhome was on fire and I didn't know it or some other awful thing because police in front of my townhome! I threw my shirt closed and opened the door, the police car was gone but the guy and another guy were a few townhomes down. I asked what happened...

One of my neighbors had reported them for seeking solicitations without permission of the complex and the police had shown up to ask them to leave. The police up here have time to show up to ask people soliciting in a townhome complex to leave... the police have time to do this within about 20 minutes of a complaint of solicitors...

This is so not a suburb of NYC anymore.

Oh wow. I mean, it's good that your town is peaceful/quiet enough that the police can show up to a solicitation complaint on the double, but I would have been so scared to see the police in front of my house like that! We've only had the police show up once, when our neighbors across the way had been vandalized (i.e. someone threw eggs at their house).

I hope Adina was able to continue napping?
