Why it is good to leave windows unlocked
Well, yesterday, Sunday, my roommate and I and a friend had a great idea to go get a sandwich for dinner. We were hungry. Well, we walked out of the house and without thinking didn't grab keys or anything (we obviously had food on our mind) and we locked ourselves out of our house! IT was sooo frustrating!!!! So, we try to break in... couldn't --- Called a friend to come help - he brought tools... still couldn't break in. Every Stinkin' window in our house was LOCKED! Who locks all their windows.... obviously we do. After plenty of time in the somewhat cold weather, our friend called a friend who called a friend who was a locksmith. He came and let us in. Now, locksmiths are EXPENSIVE on sunday evenings. However, since our friend, knew this friend, who knew a friend, he came and let us in for CHEAP plus a plate of cookies. So, moral of the story...
1. Check, do you have your keys before you leave the house?
2. Leave a window unlocked just incase you ever need to break in.
3. It pays to know people, who know people, who know people.
4. Tell the girl at subway that you don't have your subway card because it is in your house and you locked yourself out of your house and she will give you a free soda.

I felt really dumb.
I remember once being locked out of our Hollyhock house and being really frustrated too! But I managed to break in a window. The one to the garage and then the garage door was unlocked. My uncle has a post-it note on the door that says "KEYS?" Maybe you should try it.
5. Make sure you aren't wearing flip-flops when it is still winter out.
Its scary to leave a window unlocked. Just make a copy of your house key and leave it with a friend who lives close by, so if you get locked out you can call and say "i need my key"
