Freaky weird crap goin’ down tonight!

Okay, this is what happened: my mom went down to Lewiston to spend the night with her boyfriend, and my dad is out of town until tomorrow. I was at home, messing around on the computer, when I heard these weird scratching noises upstairs.
So I go up there, figuring one of the cats got caught in something. But while I was up there, I heard a different noise outside–a weird rustling of leaves and a sound of several people running. So I run back downstairs and go outside. Looking around, I saw nothing–until I looked up in the trees. There were these freaky glowing sticks–green, blue, orange–hanging in groups of three in a few of the trees in our yard. It took me a few minutes to figure out that they were glow sticks.
I got a broom, stood up on the porch, and tried to knock them out of the trees, but I realized that the strings they were tied to were wrapped very tightly around the branches–too tightly, I thought, to have been done by simply throwing them up into the trees.
Then, to add to this, freaky twilighty music started to come out of one of our neighbor’s houses.

Weird. Very weird at midnight.

I’m scared!

But there’s good news…my dad called and apologized to me! However, I don’t know how sincere it really was.
