Boom?

Funny thing- I wound up feeling like one of those cats in my little cartoon drawing the morning after I posted it...

I was at work, doing an overnight shift, and around 4:45 AM, I began hearing helicopters going overhead, which is unusual here, especially at night. I kept on going outside and watching them as they passed overhead, wondering what the heck was going on. At first I worried that there had been some big accident, and the helicopters were medical evacuation flights to Albuquerque or Denver. But this went on for hours... big mystery... they were talking about it on the local radio station too, wondering what was going on.

Finally, just before 7 AM it was cleared all up, as they reported on the radio station that one of the major TV stations out of Albuquerque was doing a feature on our little town for their morning news show, and the helicopter was flying around the valley shooting film. So... they may be broadcasting film of a tiny Jaya looking up at them with a puzzled look on my face. And all across New Mexico, people are digesting that image of me with their morning cereal. Hmmmm...

Translation : The aliens have crashed their saucer. ;)

Yes, Translator- the aliens DID crash, at precisely 7:15 AM yesterday morning, while the helicopter was still buzzing the area. I heard the loud explosion or crash noise, and then an alarm went off for about 30 seconds. And then... a most suspicious SILENCE followed. I was at work, supervising youth, while all this was happening, and even the kids who slept through the helicopter noise were woken by the loud explosion sound at 7:15.
