EC and I came up with a rating scale for the use of the repetitive 'ha' at least a year ago. We clearly should have patented it. | | |
| Well I guess you have to take the lows with the highs.
Last night I came home to my house broken into. They jimmied open the window, and stole my laptop. They rooted through our bedrooms, making a bit of a mess, but luckily we didn't have much else of value in the house. Police came by today and did some fingerprinting, which left a huge mess of that black powder stuff, and though they got some prints from the outside of the window, prints from outside the house are not enough to convict someone. They also apparently broke into a house two doors down, so hopefully the officer will have better luck finding prints there. Even with the prints, though, I was told not to expect much of anything. They suggested I keep my eye open on craigslist, ebay and pawn shop websites for my computer. So if anyone sees a Dell Inspiron 5100 up for sale, let me know!
It sucks, because I lost a bunch of pictures that were on the computer. Lame. It also sucks to know that someone has gone through my house. What a gross feeling. | | |
