Someone kicked in my front door and stole a whole mess of stuff from my house, including another Xbox (360 with Totaro in the tray. The One had my Legendary Destiny disk in its tray), two MacBook Airs, an EeePC, some jewelry, drawers rummaged through, stuff on the floor....It really sucked. Oh, and one of the kids' pillowcases off her bed to stuff it all into. They had the TV in the living room disconnected and on the floor, but I guess they couldn't fit it into their car or didn't have enough time to take it. The worst part? My wife missed them by a matter of one or two minutes. She had taken the littlest one to the doctor that morning. I could see when she came home by the time her phone reconnected to the wifi on the router and what time the equipment was unplugged or shut down and disconnected from the router...a matter of about two minutes difference in the logs. So glad she didn't run into them.

  • I clarify, I liked that she didn't run into them, not that you were burglarized... Realized that may have looked odd

  • That's pretty terrifying. Really too bad they made off with so much, too. People can really irritate me sometimes. I mean, who does that to a fellow human being? (I could go on a whole rant here, but suffice it to say that I'm glad you're wife didn't meet up with those fack-tards.)

  • It was very distressing. We had another break-in some months later, that time through a bedroom window. We've since moved from that house into a condo. The rest of the time we were there whenever I got home, I never quite shook the urge to search the house from the outside for signs of a break-in and from the inside once entering. I was always worried for my wife. The neighborhood was supposed to be a good one but all around it were signs of increasing crime. Pro Tip: When helicopters start circling above your neighborhood, it's time to leave.

  • I can understand the compulsion to search, if only because my step-dad was the same way. He's a Vietnam veteran, and a pastor all in one, and after our church (a church my dad built himself) was burned down by some rather distasteful people, he's been a lot more wary of everything around the neighborhood. Also fire prevention. That's been a big one in his house for a while now, as you can imagine. It's interesting you mention the helicopters, too, because I live in an apartment complex where choppers have passed over a few times. I only assume they were searching, but there were no cruisers to accompany them, so I can't be sure. Hopefully I'll be outta here by the end of the year, anyway. Stay safe!
