Boo!!

I am possibly the most jumpy person I know. Everything scares me/ makes me jump. Someone could be right behind me and say, "BOO!" and I nearly leap out of my skin. I've always been this way. Anyways, one night I was having trouble sleeping. I was laying in bed when at about midnight I heard a sound. It sounded like "squishy, squish, THUMP, THUMP," I tried to console myself by thinking I was just hearing things (as if hearing sounds in my head would be consoling!). After about a terrifying five minutes of these noises I was convinced there was either A. a crazy animal (most likely a huge rat) , B. a ghost, or C. a maniac robber who is going to attack me. I can honestly say that I was scared to death. I was already thinking of how horrible it would be to die! All the sudden I heard foot steps climbing the stairs. I looked to see what my soon to be killer's identity was, and saw my dad armed with a bottle of Febreeze! He had worked late and gotten the urge to spritz the house with freshener. Its funny how carried away one can get with their imagination :)
