This lazy panda forgot to write something about itself.

Last year our family dog had to be put to sleep on my birthday. His stomach flipped the week before and caused irreparable damage. He’d already had it turn a few years ago. My mum went to pick him up and the vet told her he wasn’t going to recover and was in pain. I got a phone call on my way to work where she was distraught. Thankfully my manager was incredible and let me use a sick day to go home. I had to arrange the home visit to put him to sleep because my mum couldn’t do it. I called my dad to tell him (my parents are divorced and he hadn’t seen the dog in years.) I arranged everything so he could be brought home and go to sleep peacefully with me, my mum, and my sister. It was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done. My birthday is two weeks before Christmas and I’d already got him a present. This big goofball got me through my parents’ divorce and the hardest breakup I’ve been through. I’m in my late twenties and it was one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do.
Hey Pandas, What Are Some Interesting Stories You Have?
Here's a spooky one in theme with the month Now this was just last year so I remember it pretty well but I don't have the best memory so some of it might not be totally accurate but all the main things are accurate. The neighborhood I live on is on top of a hill and near the bottom of the hill (about half a mile away) is my highschool, so I would walk to school cause there was no bus and I couldn't drive yet (and it's good exercise) about halfway down the hill is this giant mostly empty lot with nothing but this really old house made of wood and metal siding things, I don't know what they're called, it's two stories and looks like it could collapse but it's been standing for over 6 years in the exact same condition. It's rumored that it's owned by a disabled person and they never come outside, but no one really knows. Anyways, around this time last year, we're hanging out and decided we were bored so we'd go on a walk, we ended up walking past the house and thought, it's 10 o'clock, almost Halloween, we're male teenagers who love to be scared, let's go inside. So we hop the small metal fence and go to the back door, I decide it'd be funner, and more scary, if he went to the front and I went through the back, so I tried the door and weirdly it was unlocked, I go in and find myself in a really run down kitchen, the sink is rusted over, the pantry door is on the floor from broken rusted hinges, and the weirdest thing is a box of clean sharp kitchen knives are on the counter, they look brand new. Then suddenly it dawns on me that we just broke into a disabled persons house, so I turn around and am about to leave and get my friend to tell him we're idiots, when there's a knock on the door that lead out of the kitchen to rest of the house, I didn't open it to explore more cause I realized what we were doing, I froze for a moment, then the creepiest thing of my life happened, I heard my mom say "hey Op I found you and your friend". My mom was back at my house and wouldn't have followed us, so I booked it out the door and ran around to where my friend had first split paths, just as he came running too, we stopped for a moment out of breath, then just hauled a*s out of there. When we finally got back to my house, we went inside, and there was my mom, fast asleep on the couch with the TV on. We go down to my bedroom and he tells me that he heard is grandma who passed away a year prior say "you're not supposed to be here sweetie" we were both freaked out and never walked by there at night again. To make things even creepier, a couple of months ago they demolished the house because the owner sold it or something like that, but my other friends dad, who worked with the construction crew, said that one night they left they're machines their and the next morning there was dead animal carcasses in the cockpits or whatever they're called. Anyways there's my interesting story, if y'all got any spooky ones, I'd love to read them in the comments
