The whistling killer

I am sitting here. Alone. Sipping my coffee.
The noisy fan and the dogs breathing are the only sounds.
Suddenly there is a cheerful whistle.
I pause what I'm doing.
Then again comes that cheerful whistle.
Immediately my mind goes into panic mode "OMFG a whistling serial killer is in here!" I grab a number 2 pencil as my weapon. "You won't whistle round here ya killer!", I shout.
The biggest of the two dogs quickly picks her head up, then puts it back down giving me a look. I'm pretty sure she rolled her eyes too. She sighs, a slow whistling noise from her nose.

It was coming from the dogs nose. You know how sometimes when you breathe it makes a whistling noise? I guess because there is a blockage there or something.

@cupkitties oh I get you now! Yep I get that myself sometimes which is due to nasal blockage.

Ha ha ha, you can really get spooked. I have done so as well. I bet your dog thinks you are silly, cause she would protect you. . .yeah, right.

No. She would run and hide with her tail tucked.

It appears that there was total peace and calmness around you
. It was like a pin drop silence and the moment a sound emanated from dogs, it made you think what it could be. Our mind is such that negative thoughts come first in our mind than positive thoughts, therefore, you thought it could be a 'whistling serial killer', though it was not the case.. So in future be cautious, when sitting alone in complete silence, you never know what is going to happen next.

glad it was a false alarm even if it seemed spooky and scary at the time. I'd prefer a whistling killer to a silent one as the warning might give me a chance to escape or find a defence

So that is good you are ready to lash out at serial killer Shasta.
Always be prepared as you never know.

This is nothing compared to when someone INTENTIONALLY wants to scare you.

I've whistled from my nose, lots of times! Have I thought about becoming a serial killer? Not yet!
