I woke because I thought I heard a fox barking and I had my balcony door open so I got up, closed, and locked it so the fox couldn't find me and get in :-) It was an eerie sound, kind of like a howl but not wolfish or doggish so who knows what it was? I got irrationally scared though. I really don't like the middle of the night. If it is earlier than 1:30-2:00 or gets to be 5:30 or so I can deal with it.
