Creepy guy with a video camera (November 6, '07)

You know, I wasn't going to blog this, but I think it will help me cope! Thursday evening, when my kids and I were leaving the convenience store, a guy was videotaping us. I didn't find this out until I was buckling in Owen and Grace said, "Mom, that guy's videotaping you." To which I said, "WHAT!??!" Yep, the guy in the van next to me was taping my backside putting my child in his carseat. Grace then said, "I saw him taping us as soon as we opened the door." Nice. Now I'm thinking he was taping us while we were in there eating, too, because he was parked in front of the big window. So, I get the kid in, close the door, and get in the driver's seat. I shoot this guy the look of death, and he backs out and tears out of the lot, not even stopping for the stop sign. Had my three year old been buckled in, I might have given chase. I wanted to, believe me. And, yes, I called the cops. I'm not banking on anything, though. Just keep your eyes out for a creepy older guy in an old blue minivan. As Grace put it, "I could tell he was bad because of his eyes." Psalm 91!
