Burglars

In an earlier post, Craig aptly referred to his new 'tenants' as squatters. Back in the day, when this cancer scored a "low" to "guarded" on the Craigland security threat level system, I made an analogy that the cancer was like burglars new in the "B & E". They picked the lock, crossed normal defenses and were sneaking around looking for prized possessions to steal until a light came on and then another and the burglars were scared away just in time before something more significant could occur. To see them in the house was a fright, no doubt, but they're gone, and you cling to the hope that they won't return. But, back in your mind, you realize that they now know where you live and how to break in.

Two years later, it seems they've returned and are packing heat.
