So, tonight Caitlin came downstairs and said, "Mom, I need your keys so I can get into your room to get something." My response was, "Why do you need my keys?" "Because I locked the door so Ethan wouldn't get in there." Well, the only problem was...MY KEYS WERE IN MY ROOM!!!!! So, I was stuck with the problem that my door was locked, my keys were in my locked room, the hinges to the door were on the inside, as well as the screws to the door knob. The room is on the second floor, so even if the window was open, I had no way of getting to it because I don't own a ladder. So, I came up with two solutions:

1. Go through the attic crawlspace of which there is an opening to in my hallway, and hope that there is another opening either in my room or in my closet, even though I had never seen one before.

2. Use the "credit card" trick I had seen so many times on television.

Of course, I figure there's no way that actually works. That's just TV. Besides, most of the time the credit card breaks and that's how the police catch the guy that was trying to break into the house in the first place. LOL So, I decided to try the credit card trick before the attic crawlspace because it's easier and less messy than crawling around in an attick with who knows what kind of creatures, dust, grime and just icky stuff up there, all with the probability that there is no opening in my room anyways. (Although, I might have been able to get into my neighbor's condo LOL) So, out came my Petco card (didn't want to run the risk of breaking my credit card...that's WAY too valuable ;) ) and wouldn't you know...the credit card trick WORKS!!!!! It took less than a minute to get my door open! I was thrilled and quite proud of myself. Hmmmmmm, who's next?
