So we're outside Ann's house killing a spider when the door behind us goes...

*click*
Justin - Oh shit...
Ambrose - Uhh.. Ann, do you have a key to get back in..?

But alas, she didn't, so for the next 45 minutes, we scoured the surrounding area looking for a way to break back in. Our options? Scaling the wall to get to the balcony with its unlocked door, climbing over the small wall betweenAnn's balcony and her neighbor's (she lives on the second story of an apartment complex), getting onto the roof and hopping down to the balcony, and unscrewing the window from its frame. The easiest way, going from balcony from balcony, was out because no one lived in the apartment next door. There were only two screws holding the middle of the window frame together, and we got one of them out using a car key as a screwdriver, but the other one was too stubborn to move. Getting onto the roof was the way to go, then, but that proved to be somewhat difficult, and scary, considering we were trying to climb up there while already standing on a second story balcony in front of her front door. We tried several times unsuccessfully to boost either me, Justin, or Ambrose up but there wasn't anything to grab onto and the incline of the roof was too extreme. Ambrose was even thinking about climbing a tree next to the building, but it just barely fell short of the height of the building. Finally, while we were attempting once again to boost ambrose up, one of Ann's neighbors came home and told us he had a ladder we could use, and with that Ambrose was able to get onto the roof, hop down onto the side balcony, and get into Ann's house through there!

We'd kick ass being secret agents, haha.
