Gunshots rang out like a bell

If there’s one thing I can’t stand, it’s gunshots at 3am! Who’s with me?? Last night I was sleeping (not very soundly, I’ll admit) when I was awakened by ne’er-do-wells in the middle of the night. I just so happen to have the moment I woke up on camera. Take a look at who was aware of the situation before I was…


Needless to say, I didn’t sleep well the rest of the night as proved by my sleep stats, recorded thanks to Garmin Vivoactive HR. My heart rate also spiked around 310am.


Listen, if you’re going to be shooting off your guns at 3am and zipping around town like you’ve got somewhere to be, do it somewhere else. This guy needs his beauty sleep! All joking aside, this really ticks me off. Thankfully, it’s very rare that I hear any gunshots but when I got out of bed to see what was going on, I felt extremely judgmental and justified in being that way. There were 3 cars in this little encounter and I don’t know if there was animosity or if they were just shooting for the fun of it. I can’t decide which I’d rather it be. But hopefully they won’t come back this way again. Just grow up…. and also… go to bed! It’s 3am!

Nothing good happens after midnight.
