Gunshots

There's nothing like waking in the middle of the night because you really have to pee, throwing back the covers and hearing two gunshots. Fired at a very deliberate pace. (As in Ka-Pow! -- beat -- beat -- Ka-Pow! Like someone took the time to think about whether or not to pull the trigger the second time.) Within a couple of blocks of where you are sleeping. When I heard absolutely nothing next, no running feet, no screaming, no sirens, I waited about two minutes and then walked into the bathroom.

We're definitely within the city limits. No one should be firing off large caliber weapons at a quarter to three in the morning. I mean, what is there to shoot at?

If I find out what there was to shoot at, I'll let you know.
