This time the cops told me that on the next occasion, I should call them quietly, then open the blinds and watch him, and talk to him, so as to keep him there (and get a description).

I’m surprised they’d advise me to use myself as bait like that. And here I was last night, after having called the cops, cowering in wait away from any windows, thinking I should probably go back to my room and watch him, so as to keep him there. But then I thought that that would be stupid. Guess that stupid thing is exactly what I’m going to do next time.
