Bad things come in 3's!

Wow!!! I sure didn't see this comin! I have had a very interesting last 3 days of my life! It all started on Saturday night. Me and Megan had just come home from babysitting her niece and nephew. It was about 9:30 at night. We pulled up my driveway and it was real dark because our lights had blown out there a couple days before. We were debating whether or not to go around the front of the house because it was lit or just go in the garage like usual. We decided to go through the front. I was joking around and rung the doorbell to "scare off the burglars!" and then we went inside. Megan went to go change and I went to let the dog out. I opened the door to the garage and saw the door to outside wide open! I shut the door and ran to tell Megan. She called her dad who is an officer and he said to call the police. We did. He also said to get away from the windows and into a stairwell. We did. Then we listened. And ten minutes later we heard a car pull into our driveway, then someone outside the house. We figured it was the police till we heard the car speed away. We were kinda confused and totally freaked out when ten minutes later the police showed up at our door. They searched the house and outside and said they saw nothing suspicious. Then after they left Megan called her dad and he said that is sounds like we got home just in time and that they had gone into the garage through the door (which can just be pushed in cuz the lock is jammed, but we usually dead bolt) and waited there till we got into the house and then ran to the woods called their buddies to pick em up and that was that.
Then the excitement didn't end there. Sunday morning I am going into church. I shake the greeters hand and kaplowee! I totally trip over my own two feet and fall right in the door way! I was totally embarrassed! Until I noticed the river of blood flowing down my leg! That's when I freaked! I don't remember too much after that cept that there was blood everywhere and somebody helped me down to the restroom where they removed my pantyhose and tried to get everything cleaned up. They stuck a makeshift turnaquet on my leg. A couple ladies had blood all over their Sunday dresses, the bathroom floor was splattered, the carpet going up to the door had big patches, my shoes were stained, and I was being rushed to the hospital! I had a nice hole in my leg about 4 inches down from my knee. I ended up having to get 8 stitches and am on crutches for the next few days! It is definitely quite interesting! Here are a few pics!!!
Then this morning I get a phone call tellin me that my car (which is still at church because I can't drive) has its interior light on. So, my parents are going to swing by cuz they are on their way back from Florida and pick it up. Hopefully the battery is not totally dead by the time they get there!!
Wow! Talk about an exciting weekend! Lets just hope I don't have another like it for a very very very very long time if not ever!
