phantom

i think my apartment has a ghost.  i'm not 100 percent certain, but i really think i'm right.  each night when i go to bed, i turn off the living room touch lamp.  then, every morning a mysterious warm lamp glow fills the room. 
 
for several weeks my roommate and i separately thought we lived with a delinquent who couldn't remember to turn a light off, until one night we realized it wasn't us. 

i even camped out in the living room one night, just to see who turned the light on in the wee hours of the morning.  apparently, i make a really bad watchdog.  when i woke up the next day, the dimly lit lamp stood there taunting me.

this is disturbing.

It's probably Jorab.

Maybe one of you is a sleepwalker. Or maybe its tony the tiger's ghost. Or maybe the super from your apartment comes in at night and drinks all of the sweet tea.

Wait a second, is this the lamp that turns on if anything moves in the apartment - like someone getting out of bed?

I have an idea...why don't you unplug the lamp before you go to bed?
