Even If You Know Them Be Aware

I'm going to tell you what caused me to rethink my lifestyle and bad habits.
It was a friday night in march 2006 and I was relaxing after hard day of work. I called a friend who I had planned on going to a bar with and she said she wasn't going out tonight and apologized. I said my business and got off the phone. Grabbed a shot glass and had a shot then headed outside to have a smoke. A neighbor girl who I had talked to a hung out with before walked past with a girl friend(both were smoking hot). I checked them out as they walked by, and when they noticed me on the second story porch they said hey and came up and asked if they could hang out with me. This is when I made my first mistake(letting unfamiliar people into my quarters) I said,"yea but unless your 21 your not drinkin any of my alcohol". The looked a little disappointed but said,"well can we atleast have a soda?" I replied,"yes their in the fridge in the crisper"(second mistake, letting them open MY fridge). They both grab a soda and we sit down, hang out talk about stuff that seamed important at the time....the one girl tuned mt guitar even tho it's missing a string. Well they finish their sodas and say they should be going, by this time I've had a few mixed drink(third mistake drinking with people I should not trust). They ask if they can have a soda for the road, I again make the mistake of allowing them to open my fridge and get it themselves. They say that they will come back later and hang out some more. I go back to my living room and sit down having another drink. About an hour later they come back with a male friend supposedly the one girls brother visiting from Detroit. As I'm unfamiliar with him I hesitate to let him in, but the girls squeeze on through inside saying the one girl though she left her cell phone here(by this time I was wondering what was going on). He starts talking to me at my door about how dangerous Detroit is and showing me a cut on his knee from supposedly being stabbed a week ago. And as he finishes his story the girls squeeze right back past me with their purses held close to them. By the time I realized they had taken something he had already started back out the hallway door. I look back inside wondering what happened and realizing the one girl hadn't even taken a cell phone out of her purse. Thats when I check the fridge. My $30 bottle of Jack Daniels and a $14 bottle of UV Blue Raspberry Vodka are gone and I notice the freezer door is slightly ajar. I say to myself,"oh crap my money!" I open up the freezer and sure enough my $50 I stored in a ziplock behind a tv dinner was gone. I called the local PD who didn't have anyone on duty, then called the county sheriff's who didnt care to send anyone out till the next business day. No charges were ever filed. Morale of the story, Don't trust people you barely know and be aware of whats going on. Needless to say I no longer drink by myself and don't let people I don't trust into my apartment.
P.S. a few weeks later I received my taxe refund and purchased a WASR-10 and kept it on a gun rack in the living room with an unloaded magazine in it but a loaded one in my pocket. The same girls came back a week after I purchased it and I made sure to tell them they weren't welcome and held the door open far enough the could see the WASR ont eh wall. You should have seen their eyes when they noticed it. I would have irritated myself laughing had I not been angry that they though I was stupid enough to fall for it twice.
