Okay, so things have been calm at home for the past month or so, metphysically speaking. A few weird things are still happening, like the occasional smell of cig. smoke or pipe smoke in a very finite area, like a 2ft x 2ft area. I just see it as my Grandparents making sure that everything is alright.

Well, sometimes the freaky things don't always happen at night...or at home.

I was at work the other day, a Friday, and I was the only one in the office except for the guy in the QA (quality assurance)lab, which is at the other end of the office about 200ft away from my desk. I was reading email when I heard the sound of a phone receiver being picked up. Nothing out of the ordinary, it's cube space, easy to miss someone walking in, I called over to the guy that sits on the other side of the wall and he didn't answer. I hopped up on my desk and he was not there.

No big deal. I go about my business. It happened three more times in different cubes in about the span of one minute. The same sound of the phone reciever picking up and hanging up.

Then I heard mouse buttons clicking in my cube, which I share with two other people, who were not in that day. That was enough for me. I went to visit my buddy in the QA lab for the next couple of hours.

Around lunchtime, the guy that sits next to me (on the other side of the wall) came in. I told him what happened and he explained that he had been getting freaked out by the very same thing when he was there late at night.

This has apparently also happened to one other person in my office. Not one of us can figure it out, but none of us has been brave enough to stick around and find out what is going on.
