You guys, I don't know what is happening here, but over the past week, we've had some weird stuff goin on!
#creepy
Nate and I were just sitting there playing Jots and Tittles on sunday and all of the sudden a phone starts ringing in our couch! it was neither of our phones! all I could think of was "someone just called, and i probably answered it and now they can hear everything we are saying for...ever....i better watch what i say!" #ithinktheweirdestthings
#creepier
Yesterday, I was organizing Eli's room with all the newborn stuff #newbornsneedlotsofstuff and all of the sudden I hear a man's voice in our apartment. It sounded like a pandora commercial, so I went out and checked my phone...
#creepierier
Last night in the middle of the night, my alarm went off...not my phone alarm, but-my-old-fogey-alarm-clock-from-when-i-was-12-that-i-only-use-to-tell-time-for-and-never-set, yeah that alarm. It went off. I was like, "nate, what is that?" he's like "its an alarm" (nate never gets weirded out in his sleep, I have to like wake him up to tell him to go check on things, haha)
I was like "um...why is an alarm going off in the middle of the night?" so I hit snooze
9 mins later...same alarm. (i guess I wasn't so awake, eh?)

So, the other night, we were just sitting there sleeping. Wait, we were laying there sleeping. Middle of the night. and all of the sudden our printer turns on. I wake up and am like, "um...whats that?" Nate's like, "oh its just the printer." #seewhatimean I'm like. "Nate, why is the printer going off. That's so weird."
I made him go check it out because I was so creeped out.
#backflash
about a year ago when we lived at BYU, we were just sitting there in our apartment and all of the sudden our printer turns on and starts printing. I am like freaking out because...why is it printing when we didn't do anything?? the first thought that pops into my mind is that someone is sending us crazy messsages saying "we're coming to get you"or how they've been watching us for a while (how did I even think of that?? I don't even watch scary movies #weird). Anyway, i was so freaked out that I made nate look at the paper that printed and it was.....
gasp,...
our neighbor's taxes. Seriously, like one of the most personal documents ever, and it was printing at our house. We started laughing, how is this even possible?
THEN
it happened again.
I am still pretty freaked out, but now I think its funny too. We finally called him to let him know his printing job was done and that it'll be 7 cents per sheet #toughcrowd #hahajk. Apparently, he had selected a printer, and since our apartments were so close, he got the signal from our printer and it came to us. Haha...and no, we did not look at any of the info on his taxes #we'renotcreepers!
#backtooriginalstory
so, its the middle of the night like 1 am, and our printer is on and all I can think of is the creepy marijuana man sending us messages
#backflash
back in january our apartment would get filled with marijuana smoke multiple times a day. We realized that it was not coming through the windows or walls, but through our vents! Seriously, who connects people's vents?? Anyway, so after fighting it out with our apartment managers for a week or so... all the while being forced to get high while pregnant with a toddler. We finally moved apartments in the complex. (they wanted to make us pay $5000 to break our lease #ihatefineprint...so we stayed). During that time they had put around notices that you can get evicted for smoking in your apartment. (but we found out that it would take a minimum of 45 days to get him evicted, so we decided to move the next day...aint no one got time to be preggers with a child getting high for 45 days!)
Look it up, marijuana smoke is worse than cigarette smoke. The THC that gets you high when you smoke it is actually released in the smoke, so its like you are smoking when you just inhale the smoke! crazy!! Good news is that it was almost always in our main living area, and never in Eli's room and rarely in our room. But we did leave and stay at a friends house over the weekend because it was so bad it would burn our eyes and we would get all loopy.....
anyway
so, i have run into the marijuana man (the man I am sure that was the problem) so I have run into him multiple times since then. He always has his dogs with him, and I'm always alone #eek. I am glad I have pepper spray and that I am reading my scriptures and saying my prayers, so that I can be protected #armorofgod #ihopehedoesntreadmyblog
#backtothestory
so in my sensical mind, all i can think as our printer is freaking out is that the marijuana man is sending us messages about how he's coming to get us.
ok, creepy things are creepy, but once you figure out what it really is. Its just funny:
phone ringing: we still have no idea, we never found a phone. Someone outside must have had the loudest ring tone ever and it sounded like it was coming from underneath me
#orsomeoneisstilllisteningtous
weird man voice:
still have no idea, but i checked and no one was in my house, and it wasnt my phone for sure
alarm going off:
i'm sure eli just pressed some buttons and turned on my alarm clock
printer:
its def the marijuana man
jk, we realized that the power had gone off and just turned back on, and our printer takes like 8 mins to turn on.
here's one more funny/creepy thing that happened to me: this is my post from a year and a half ago when eli was only 3 weeks old that I posted on facebook:
what's the creepiest non-creepy thing that has ever happened to you??



Loved reading the funny/creepy things you experienced! I just typed out a really funny story that was pretty long, but as I tried to post the story, I accidentally pressed back and lost my unpublished post. Stupid. Next time I talk to you I will tell you the story. I'm too tired to write it again. I love you!
ReplyDeleteLol! that was hilarious to read! I'd like to personally thank you for being creeped out for the sake of our entertainment- so generous of you! I love that you make Nate get up in the night to go check on things- I mean really- what are husbands for? I can totally relate to your marijuana story. That same thing happened to my companion and i on my mission. We also had a (on more than one occasion) people pounding on our bedroom window in the middle of the night, we assumed , looking for drugs. We only had to deal with the 'getting high via the vent' for about a week. We really prayed that somehow we wouldn't have to deal with it anymore then came home one night to find our neighbors gone and an eviction notice on their door. Prayer works!
