it's all about the thievin'

so, i got home tonight to discover our house had been broken into.

fun!

they took some bizzare stuff.

- a 5 year old palm pilot
- a 6 year old digital camera
- our digital cable reciever (?!?!?!?!?!)

and that was it.

they left behind the computers (by far the most valuable stuff we own, although not *that* valuable, which says something about us)

they also left behind the laptop which was in plain view.

the pisser is they trashed our door. they literally broke in, smashed the door frame to get it. good times.

i was a bit weirded out, mostly because i kept thinking 'what would have happened if i'd be home?'

the cops were adiment that if i had been home it wouldn't have happened because these aren't the type of people who are looking for confrontation. if i'd been home they would have turned tail and run. i have to say, that was reassuring.

so, as i type john is putting the door frame back togther. good times.

all in all it's been a grand birthday week...
