honk if you need help.

This morning at approximately 4AM I awoke to the sound of a car horn. At first I thought it was a car alarm. Then Jesse told me it wasn't an alarm and that someone was sitting in a car in front of the house across the street honking their horn. "How rude!" I thought as I tried to go back to sleep. The honking continued. For a long time. I was super pissed that someone thought it was a good idea to sit and honk their horn at that ungodly hour. Jesse got up and called the police and then called our security company that has the dude that patrols the neighborhood. Finally the honking stopped and because I am super nosey, I ran to the window to see whether the car left or what happened. The police were there and then an ambulance showed up. The ambulance left and a woman got out of the car. I have no idea what happened but she was obviously trying to get help by honking her horn and waking up the entire neighborhood. Nobody felt safe enough to go outside and find out what the problem was. I considered it but thought it wouldn't be a good idea. Jesse said he also considered it and ruled it out. I don't know what happened to her. The front of her car was smashed up so maybe someone ran into her and took off. She obviously didn't have a cell phone to call the police or I would hope she would have called instead of honking her horn. I was glad the ambulance left because I assume that meant she was not hurt. It took me a long time to fall back asleep. And when I did I had messed up dreams. And the cats were hogging the bed. So on my way to work this morning I was very very sleepy. I realized my blinks were getting longer and longer. Falling asleep on the way to work is not a great way to start the week. Ugh.
