Did You Hear Me Scream?!

Would you scream if you rounded a corner and Chewbaca was standing there?  I was terrified.

Yesterday, Doug (our administrator at the church) buzzed me and said, "Brit, can you please come down to my office?"  A call like that from a guy like Doug (even though he is absolutely fantastic and gentle) will make you worry a little.  So I put on my shoes, my mind started racing wondering what in the world could be the problem, my tummy got a little nervous and I started down my hall.  When I walked past another office, Helen said, "Are you in trouble?"  "I don't know."

I started down the stairs and turned the corner to go down the hall to Doug's office and as I turned the corner, there stood Chewy.  I screamed.  Really, really LOUD!  Loud enough that a girl on the floor below us heard me.  Then I jumped back through the doorway and pinned myself against the wall.

Helen heard me and came racing down the stairs to make sure I was okay.  I was panting, kind of crying and kind of laughing (that is what I do when I get hurt and when I get scared).  It was terrifying, but Craig (Chewy) and Doug both got a good laugh out of it.
