I had to break into my own house after the police locked me out. AND I had just come from a hospital where I'd seen my best friend's son for the last time before he died. AND it was 11 p.m. I didn't get back inside until well after midnight. AND it was on my birthday! Here's what happened. This was on the second floor of an apartment complex, where I shared an entrance area with one other apartment. The neighbor across from me got into an argument there with a guy who owed him money, and apparently threatened to kill him. One of the downstairs neighbors overheard this and called the police. But by the time they arrived, the argument was over and both parties were gone. Unfortunately, the downstairs neighbor thought that the argument was in my apartment, so the cops got the keys from the manager and checked inside my apartment. When they left, they locked both deadbolts -- that apartment had an extra one, for some reason, but I never even had a key for the second one. So there I was, exhausted, burned out (my friend's son had been ill for a very long six months) and actually laughing about the fact that this was all happening on my birthday. The apartment manager wouldn't come to her door, so I called the police to see how they reached her. They called her and she said it was too late at night for her to even come to her door. But the apartment management company eventually repaid me for the locksmith. That was a rotten day.
