And this was not the first time. “God damn couch,” he cursed at the inanimate object. After working his twelve hour midnights shift at the Minooka Police Department and getting off at 0700 hours that morning, he had managed to stay awake just long enough to throw his uniform into a crumpled heap on the floor in his closet and head downstairs to the basement. Dan was now set to be off for a couple of days and had a lot of chores to get done if he wanted to be able to participate in a competitive shooting event scheduled for that coming weekend. He headed for his equipment room which contained his gear, reloading equipment, ammo cans and gun safe. He opened a door to what looked like a walk-in closet and stepped into the darkness. Only after entering the closet and closing the first door could a person see the second door that led into the small room. In this hidden equipment room Dan found a mess. Dan always lived by the motto “Buy it cheap and stack it deep” which led to a bit of a hoarding problem.
