If I’m Dead Tomorrow, This Is Why

I’m kind of afraid right now.  I think it’s because absolute strangers are calling me and knocking on my door.  We’ve been looking for a third roommate for a while now, and our landlord offered to help us put up some ads online and in other places.  Well, I stumbled across one on craigslist the other day.  It has a picture of our house, our address, both of our names, and our phone numbers.  On craigslist.  How creepy is that?!?!?!  Now complete strangers who have randomly found me on the internet are calling me and coming to my house.  This may sound wierd, but I don’t actually want strange men doing that.  And that’s exactly what’s happening.  I talked to my landlord today and told him to take the information off of the ads, and he said, “Oh, didn’t you want them to drive by first to see the place?”  And I was like, “no, actually we try to talk to people first and not give out our personal information to complete strangers.”

Twice tonight some guy has knocked on the door, but I didn’t open it because I was in my pj’s fresh out of the shower, and HELLO, freak stranger from the internet!  At my house!  Trying to come inside!  When I’m alone!  Luckily I had Teddy, who barked at the door.  Hopefully the wierdos will think he’s a ferocious guard dog and will back the fudge off.  But now I’m a little scared that someone could be hanging around the house sometime waiting to meet one of us.  Or worse.  Since seriously, the ad was literally - “two mid twenties girls looking for a fun roommate”, then with our address, names, and phone numbers.  How ridiculous is that?!?!  I mean, does our landlord want people to break in and rape us or something?!?!  Because that ad screams out “Hey freaks!  Come stalk us!”.  And that really, really scares me.
