BA’s Boogeyman

BA’s Boogeyman Lives

To be exact, BA’s Boogeyman lives under her bed! It’s probably no surprise that I believe in the  boogeyman. After all, I believe in; fairies, dinosaurs, bigfoot, aliens and good customer service too! To get more to the point, I am certain the boogie man has taken up residence under my very own bed. I am never more certain about this, than the time it takes me to walk the 15 steps between the light switch to the bed, late at night. My attempt at adulting and talking myself out of this fact in those 15 steps. are completely annihilated in the last three seconds it takes my feet leave the floor and get completely on the bed!

The Safe Zone

There is something almost mystical about those three seconds.  I have usually talked myself down to a safe place in those 15 steps…. but man, when that last foot comes up off that floor, I can not get to the home safe, protected, guarded zone, under the covers, fast enough!  Whew, safe I say and then I laugh nervously to myself and think…. boy are you going to freak out the day he actually grabs you!  I do this every single night! hahahah. You can laugh, it doesn’t bother me one bit.

Rustle, RusTLE, RUSTLE!!

So the other night, I arrived safely in bed and was very much asleep when a noise awoke me. Upon coming too, I thought, did I hear something?  Rustle, rustle, (sharp intake of breath and instantly snapping too, without moving) yes!!! I did hear something!!! OMG… The boogie man is alive!!!  Holding my breath, I wait for yet more confirmation.  There it goes again.  Rustle, Rustle.  What is that, candy wrappers? The boogeyman eats candy? That hardly seems plausible.

Now the sane thing to do, would be to get out of bed and turn on the light to investigate.  There is no way in hell I am getting out of bed …. in the dark… with the boogeyman in the room.  The significant other is out of town, so back up is out. So, I pretty much sit paralyzed listening to these intermittent rustlings. Man, it sounds so close by, do I dare move? I am definitely awake and I am definitely hearing it.  Ok, what to do?

Finally, it dawns on me that my phone has a blinding flashlight option on it. With as little movement as possible, I feel around for it. I find the phone, turn it on … ugh! The display light is blinding at this hour, like rebar through my eye socket.  I find the flashlight option and shine it around the room, nothing, anywhere …. but… I hear the noise again.

On the bed next to me are three pieces of paper, stapled together, rustling in the breeze of the ceiling fan.

Nice cover Boogeyman …. but I know you are in here, you can’t fool me!!!
