I just had a harrowing experience.

I live in a house turned into a triplex and on the top floor attic apartment on around Brant ave. You have to walk up a lot of stairs to get to my door outside and then a lot more once you open my door to get onto the landing inside my apartment. Its a work out. Ive lived here for 10 years and feel invisible to the world. Or so I thought.

1230am, getting ready for sleep for work tomorrow at 1130. Put my cpap on, starting to drift off. The light comes on in my stairwell at the bottom of my steps. I immediately step out of bed and run to the stairs down to my front door and there's a fucking GUY at the bottom of my stairs and looks at me. Before he could even say anything I fucking LOSE it. "GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY PLACE RIGHT NOW OR IM CALLING THE COPS. GET THE FUCK OUT." He says something like "im sorry man, I thought this was my friend place "172" something" (I cant quite remember. I cut him off again and said i dont give a fuck get the fuck out right now or im calling the cops.

He backs out of my apartment and rakes like 4 steps backwards and I slam the door shut and lock it and am standing at the door and hear him mumble something to me and I just said fuck off get the fuck out of here or im calling rhe cops.

Like 4 minutes pass and I had heard him step down my steps and I didnt know what else to do as I was freaking out with adrenaline.

I stupidly opened the door and looked out and said you better be fucking gone (to no one) and I noticed he was at my neighbour's backyard fence (our backyards connect) and i screamed at him from quite a distance to get the fuck out of the yard and leave now and he actually said to me "should've kept your door locked, you fucking idiot." To which i then said im calling the cops now and closed the door and locked it again and called them. Told them the terrible description I had (40s, white, brown jacket, didnt look homeless).

They came 15 mins later and of course he was gone after doing a coupoe laps around neighbouring blocks.

Don't know if im going to sleep tonight now. 😞

Before anyone wants to call me an idiot for it, yes, i already know im an idiot for not regularly locking my door when im home.

Believe me, that wont ever happen again.
