mood: 
worried
A man approached me just as I got home asking to call the police,
Claiming he had been threatened by those living up the street, and that underage drinking was occurring there. So I let him come up to my from door so we could get in contact with the Sheriff about it.
As it turned out, he was also drunk and under the legal drinking age,and I started getting really wary about that, I asked the operator for advice if I should make him leave or keep him around for the officers and they told me I should make him leave, unfortunately wouldn't leave wanting to sleep off his inebriation. so It turned into another situation.
Fortunately he was the harmless sort of drunk as I had initially suspected and he did eventually leave... but still not a good situation. I really don't know what to do now. and in the future, I'm so worried and nervous right now, but at the same time what's one suposed to do in such a situation? just barricade themselves away from someone seemingly harmless but in need? IDK. either way I'm certainly not going to be able to go to sleep for awhile..
