Last night approx 2244 local made a left hand turn onto my street
The subject of this sentence is?

Your behavior was fairly normal until you decided to go and post this non-event online.

Lost guy probably called somebody.

Why would you approximate the time at 2244? I think most people would assume a time at NIGHT is PM and go to 1045 AKA a quarter till 11.

Maybe because all my years of employment I work off the 24 hour clock.

Just giving you a hard time, When I was deployed I wore a watch that used military time but was constantly converting back to 12 hour when I looked at it. Now I wear a watch with hands and everything seems to happen in 5 minute increments when I log things.

No problem at all. I'm just so use to it I think in 24hour time. And thank you sir for your service.
