Silver_Fangz has long held the opinion that panel vans, especially white ones are “Creepy white vans”. According to her, “whenever you hear about an abduction or murder there’s always a creepy white van involved”. Tonight her theory received some additional proof.
I take the girls to RE down in Kihei. Squirt on Wednesdays, Silver_Fangz on Thursday. I sit outside under the one bright light in the corner of the parking lot and read my assignments, take notes and when the laptop is working start my assignments. Last night and tonight was no different.
As I was parked there reading my assignments a silver panel van pulls up on the passenger side. He backs in and out and turns around a few time. He then pulls out and backs into the space on my driver side. I’m thinking something is not quite right here. I roll up my windows very casually, and lock the doors. I adjust my rear view mirror so that I can see him. He’s acting very strange, opening his door, turning on the interior light, rolling down the windows. The two teenage girls sitting on the curb a few feet behind the van move down towards the entrance. He starts the van and backs up further. Then he does something really weird. He adjusts his side mirror on the open door so that he can see behind the van. Now… the only thing behind the van is two 6 or 7th grade girls. I’m very suspicious now. I keep checking on him, and low and behold he gets out a towel and starts doing something disgusting.
I, of course am disgusted. I start my jeep and pull out to the main parking lot. I get out with my paper and pencil, intending to get his license. He drives off. I alert the teachers that are hanging out near the entrance. They get the girls to go wait in the office and go alert the office staff. I didn’t get a license number darn it.
What is truly disturbing is that he was looking for young girls. He came to a church parking lot, in plain view of others. He had the light on and the doors open. He wanted to be seen. He was watching those young girls. He was a predator. He planned it. I am glad that I was there, and I plan to be there every day from now on for the entire time. The church will also be taking an active role.
What kind of sicko comes to a church looking for prey? What’s truly frightening is the type of vehicle he had. It was the perfect vehicle for an abduction. Just goest to show… no matter where or what, you can never be too careful with you children’s safety.
As Silver_Fangz so eloquently put it… EW.
So after a creepy night I get to spend the evening home alone as hubby is gone for a few days.
GREAT — seems like he’s always gone when I most want him to be here, and here when I most want him to be gone. Harumph. You know I’m going to be having creepy dreams and hearing all kinds of noises. ::heavy sigh::. Most likely I’ll stay up till 2 or 3 and be shot tomorrow.
Ok, — enough for tonight. Ya’ll have a great night! I’m going to try! I’ll let you know how it goes.
