Halls of the Dark Muse

I happened to hear this rather sudden knock at the door which startled me because I wasn't expecting anyone, I never expect anyone, because there generally is no reason for anyone to come to my house, and I don't know anyone who would and at first I thought it was someone selling something because in my neighborhood we get people coming around selling strawberries and oranges and such things. So usually I just ignore them like I do the phone figuring eventually they will go away when no one answers, but usually they will call out if you don't come to the door and this person wasn't saying anything they were just knocking quite persistently.

And because it is so rare for someone to come to the door my curiosity got the best of me and I figured I might as well see what it is about, and there was this Hispanic woman there and she started talking to me and apparently she does not really speak much English, and I just stared at her uncomprehendingly.

Once she established that I was incapable of understanding her she started to try and explain to me about apparently some animal that was small to large sized that was in my garage and she kept using this word that started with a p. At first I thought her dog must have got in my garage so I said I would go open the garage and than she was like "No, No" so I came back and she proceeded to try and explain to me but she just kind of kept repeated the same thing. We could not get beyond the fact that some sized animal of some sort was in my garage and we have established the fact that apparently it was not hers, yet she felt I needed to know about it.

So I began to think, what did some kid get in my garage? But I would presume if it was her kid she would want it back, and besides which a person could not have fit into the space I left for the cats, than I thought did she see my cat go into the garage? But that is not really all that uncommon why would she have to come here and tell me that?

For all I knew Cthulu could be hanging out in my garage and I realized that I was not going to get any more information from her to make it any more clear beyond the fact that a small-large creature was apparently in my garage so finally I just nodded my head and said oh ok to get her to leave so I could figure out just what was going on.

So I go out into the grarage to unravel this strange mystery, and it is of course a racoon eating the left over cat food, so I just let him do his thing and went back inside.
