My wife and girls left today for a trip. I’m always a bit nervous when they leave for a trip of some distance, and they were supposed to arrive around 2:00.

I had meetings but noticed about 3:30 that I had not heard from them. Around 4:00, I had not been able to reach them and my cameras picked up someone at my door.

Official looking person in shirt and tie with a badge. Left a card. My mind raced to the worst feelings a father can feel. I raced home frantically trying to call my wife. As I was pulling into my neighborhood my wife finally called me back. They had been in a museum and had silenced their phones.

The card left was a guy from OPM doing a background check on a neighbor.

Freaked me out.

You think they'd just leave a card at the door to tell you your family died?

Your post will probably get the usual responses that you would expect from 20-25 year old virgins that live vicariously through "BBC", but as for myself, I'm not going to kid you...that would have scared the hell out me.

I believe that's SOP, unless he had access to their bodies, in which case he'd leave them on the porch with a note attached.

I will light my wife’s arse up if she goes somewhere away like that and doesn’t let me know when she gets there.

I do have a weakness for my family that sometimes rational thought rarely factors.
