Totally convinced someone broke into our house last night.

So I woke up last night, or mostly woke up, because I was SUPER tired and didn't bother to open my eyes, but I heard someone come down the stairs (I live in the basement) and open the door to my room. I sorta moved in bed or something, thinking it was my stepdad and wondering why in the hell he was in my room. I didn't hear anything else, so I guess I fell back asleep. When I woke up in the morning, my room door was open a little. I ALWAYS shut it because noises from upstairs bug me really bad.

When I got home from school, I asked my mom if she came downstairs in the night. She said no. But, she DID tell me that I left the door unlocked when I left for school in the morning (AFTER I heard my door open at night) and she heard someone banging on our front door, but was too afraid to answer it. She peeked out the window and saw a van, but that was it. Nobody in our neighborhood has a key to our house. When my stepdad gets home, I ask him if he came into my room in the night. He said no. He also said that HE locked the door when he left in the morning (about five o'clock). I have no knowledge of what time it was when I woke up, but it had to be between midnight and six.

So I'm super confused. I guess I'll have to remember to lock the door...


I'm probably over-analyzing, but I can't help thinking that IF someone DID come into my room last night, that everything worked out the way it did for a reason. What if I had opened my eyes and seen the person? They could have gotten scared and assaulted me with a weapon. Maybe they just got scared and left when they realized someone was home and nothing of value was downstairs? (Do they seriously want to take my sewing machine or shitty old stereo? Haha) AND about a week ago, I was in bed and got the distinct feeling that I was going to die. Like, I'd just go to sleep and never wake up. So I started writing letters to my friends in case it happened. I wasn't scared; I just wanted to leave something behind.

I'm pretty positive I didn't just dream it. The fact that my door was open and the banging on the door that my mom heard just makes the whole thing eerie. So, just thought I had to tell you all about that. I'll report if anything else freaky happens.
