Prompting Me To Begin Packing Boxes

January 17, 2007

Roger and I woke up yesterday morning to discover that a crime had been committed only a few feet from our front door.

It's official: we live in the hood.

Also, you should know that the black car in the first picture? IS OURS.

This is too close for comfort.

OMG OMG OMG. RUN.

Well, you never really get away from that...did you know that the first - the VERY first night I slept in my new house in the burbs someone left a stolen truck in my driveway with no wheels just like that one?

Just to let you know that you can't stop being neurotic and become fearless when you move. ;)

Trevor lives just a couple of blocks from you and Roger (he lives in the same complex that JLR and RR used to live in before they moved to the midcities). Anyway, a lot of crime has been happening over in his area lately, but mainly out in front of the complex on the street.

Does it have any tires at all? That is horrible.

Please tell me that you modified the front license plate to say "No Peeking" and it does not really say that because that would just be Too Much.

Deals: Thank you so much for your words of comfort.

-R-: Snort! Yes, I modified it. Also, they stole all the tires. ALL FOUR.

And the owner? Had two wheel locks on each tire. Eeek!

I used to live in the ghetto of Toronto. When we were getting the house ready to put up for sale, we were painting the trim around our window, only to look out and see an exchange, between two men, of money for drugs.

Another morning, we found the police in our visitor's parking lot because the car that had been parked there for a week was stolen.

Well, this truly puts into perspective the tiny mystery scratch on my new car. So thank you for that...But this? Is NOT cool. Be careful!

Yeah, pretty much everywhere in the city you live in is a crime zone. I only wish where I'd moved to was better!

10

Haha!

The funny thing is that I didn't mean it that way. Really. I meant it much more in the I-sympathize-with-your-plight kind of way. Honest.

I blame it on the fact that I had to work today. No one should have to work when it is snowing (especially when it is snowing in Dallas). My brain was obviously frozen.

NO FREAKIN WAY

The guy must have had really nice wheels. It could've been worse, though.

I saw a story this summer about a guy who had just gotten back to Dallas after serving in Iraq. He was SHOT AND KILLED by someone who was stealing the wheels off his truck. At least this guy's alive, even if he has no tires.

Freak OUT! I had a dream about this happening to my truck last night. but my wheels are insured for 3000 dollars so if they get stolen then I am going to get PAID. I'm also going to go on a vigilante mission because NO ONE has wheels like mine and if I saw them on someone else's car then some serious road rage would ensue. SERIOUSLY.
