I just had something extremely weird happen and I wanted to pass it along..

I am home (russell road) doing laundry and all of a sudden my two dogs are going crazy growling and such. I look towards the front door and I see a man in a bright orange sweatshirt and green and white red sox hat jump and sit in my porch swing I have in front of the window. I get paranoid at this point and call my fiance to ask what do i do (ive never been in this type of situation and I was scared because honestly who sits on someone swing!?) and while telling him whats going on i look out my dining room window and I see a guy in my driveway wearing the same outfit waving his hands around to the guy on the porch. All of a sudden the guy on the porch runs down our steps and jumps into a gold colored SUV. 

I then decided to call the somerville police dept and ask what should I do in this type of situation and they said to call 911. They were more than likely looking to rob the house and when the dogs jumped growling at the front door it scared them off and the other guy was probably looking in the driveway to see if there was another way in our house. What I find weird is that we have 2 parked cars in the driveway you would think they thought we were home. 

The police are keeping an eye out especially since they werent in any type of delivery truck lost or anything like that. So just be more aware everyone! 

UPDATE 2: The cops pulled over two cars they thought might be them but nope. Turns out a neighbor sa wa weird guy lurking this morning and told him to beat it. Weirdness all around. 

UPDATE: They came back!!! They made it halfway up the steps and I think they saw me in the window (where my computer is) and they took off. The cops came this time and checked everything out but its so weird they came back. The cops are doing detail around the corner from my hous eso he said he will periodically walk back over here :(

Who is Davis Square named after?

Wikipedia doesn't have the answer. Please don't bite my head off if there's a plaque somewhere I haven't read yet.

Meghann over at the Somerville Journal interviewed me recently for a front page article. It just got published on Thursday and can be bought at the Store24 ($.75) as well as on the web for free. I have been living in Davis Sq for 4 years making custom corsets for friends in my spare time and it's really great to get the exposure.
