Random Salesman Dude

Last night at 9:00 p.m. my doorbell rings.  Without thinking I went to the door.  (I shouldn't have gone to the door!)  This guy is at the door and he is selling security systems.  He gave me his info and then was on his way.  He was sorta pushy about me agreeing to his terms.  I told him I couldn't buy his security system because he wanted to be a TENNESSEE ORANGE SIGN IN MY YARD!  Seriously dude, know your area!  You're not going to sale Tennessee orange signs to the Big Blue Nation!

I'm not typically one to be paranoid, but don't you think 9:00 p.m. is too late for a salesman to be going door to door?  It made me feel really creepy!  I did not let him enter our home.  I made him stand out on the front step so anyone driving by could see, but it still creeped me out!  Maybe they had planned to come earlier but the hurricane kept him away until it cleared out.  (Maybe I'm exaggerating a bit, but it was scary!)

Has anyone else ever had a salesman come at 9:00 p.m.?  Does anyone else think that's weird?  Do any of you hide in your home when you hear your doorbell ring at night?  I'm I over thinking this?

    I totally am with you on not answering the door when I'm home alone. I don't. Ever. Especially at night.

  2. I never answer the door when I'm home alone. Even the UPS guy knows this. He's even quit knocking if he just sees one vehicle in front of the house :) Me, I'm super paranoid. Ever since one of Ben's parolees fathers showed up at our house at 9 am on a Sunday morning...
