They say it is good to record these things so you can look back and know the truth aloud that you often wish you could brush under the rug.
It was a summer about 5 years ago. Warmers than most. I don't remember the occasion but I remember the empty Angels Envy bottle that I through out the next day.
I am a go to bed by 10 person with an airtight routine but was up later than normal this night.
My routine was usually to let the dog out, brush my teeth, use the bathroom and let the dog in and we all go to bed.
Tonight though I passed out before I let the dog in.
We have sound proofing since we live so close to the airport so I didn't hear him barking.
Around 2:00AM I woke up to the sounds of someone in my house yelling my name.
Super confused, I looked at my phone about 20 texts and calls from my neighbors about the dog barking.
Lucky one of them had a key and came over to let him in the house.
They recently moved.
While nothing like that has ever happened again not a day went by where I would run into them in the ally where I dint feel a tinge of absolute shame from that night.
Shame in front of a neighbor whose dog almost killed mine but that is another story altogether.
