I worried about it a little before, but then I had a child, and then someone tried breaking in when we were home.

We moved, but it still freaks me out. And our duplex has creaky stairs and they creak on the other side of the wall too, so it sounds like someone on the stairs even when there isn't.

I rarely sleep in the nude because I worry that the self-consciousness of fighting a burglar in the nude might be the difference in me fighting him off with my baseball bat. True fact.
