I like peanut butter. But it has to be Skippy creamy.

So, last night I was in a rush getting home, had a trunk full of goodies from Trader Joe's and was praying for parking right next to the side door of the apartment bldg. so I could unload at the basement level straight from the car. Yay, got rock star parking. All is good.

Sooooo, this morning, I head down to the basement to go out the same way to get on the way to work, I get in the car and to my surprise, yes, my car has been visted by someone other than me. The glove box is open and all the stuff is shrewn all over the floor of the car, the comparment thingie inbetween the two front seats is open and the car stereo faceplate container is not to be seen and everything else is all over the passenger seat. I look around, none of the windows are broken, how'd they get in? Aha! I must have forgotten to lock the car in my rush to get the TJ goodies out. Bitch-slap myself on the forehead. Okay, assess any damage or missing items and I start picking up stuff off the floor, lo and behold, the car stereo face plate is still in the car, even the load of change and quarters in the ash tray are there, what were they looking for? Nothing missing, not even the bottled water, not even the copy of my credit report that is sitting on the floor of the front seat that I forgot to bring in with me. No damage, just my junk all over the car.

Soooo, today I feel is my lucky day. Maybe I should buy a lotto ticket!

Snowflake, that sucks! I'm glad to hear that there was no damage and only a mess left behind!

Weird, maybe you were visited by the same punks who smashed my coworker's back window and took nothing but their $25 roadside emergency kit, leaving behind things like an easily stolen satellite radio receiver and a $200 pool cue among other things.

I am also glad that it wasn't worse, Snowflake.

My son was telling me that the whole 'car' issue sucks. What other personal item {something so valuable/expensive/important} do you just leave around like that? He said no way would he leave his PSP anywhere, etc.

I forget but I think we were talking about all of the cars we've seen with the horrible 'key' marks on them.

Have a great day and I would buy a lotto ticket. Heck, if that is what this made you think of, don't pass it up!

Snowflake,
I'm glad nothing was stolen.

Kevy Baby · 05-24-2007, 08:56 AM

Sorry for the trauma Snowflake. There is enough drama in life without crap like this happening!

WOW! i could've been so much worse! No broken window, nothing stolen - what are they teaching thieves these days?

That about $10 of quarters is not even worth boosting! Must have been on a mission for a laptop or cell phone.

The best part of the story is, had I not had the fan on in my bedroom, I would have heard the car door slam (likely) it was practically under my window. Then again, I can sleep through a war zone, but I feel like I didged a bullet and I owe myself a lotto ticket, just in case!
