Stupidest Weekend Ever


In case I haven't spoken to you yet this weekend, my apartment was broken into yesterday. In the middle of the day. When my upstairs neighbour was still home. I freaked out about as much as I can freak out when I got home (I'd been out all day, from 8:30 in the morning til 12:30 that night) but I am quite okay now. After talking to the neighbour and the police and the landlord, we kind of gathered that they came up the fire escape and entered through the back door. Used a fire extinguisher to smash a big hole in the wall next to my door, reached around and opened the door from the inside. They took a duffle bag and filled it with about 200-250 of my CDs, my digital camera, the nice leather wallet Sara made me for Christmas filled with laundry change, a couple of necklaces, and my friend Wayne's Beatles Anthology DVD box set. My bedroom was messed up good - they went through all the drawers, the closet, boxes opened with stuff everywhere. I don't expect the cops to do much, if anything. I am not covered by insurance. It all just basically sucks.

The fixit guy came this afternoon and boarded up the hole, put some extra big locks on the fire escape doors. Wayne came over and we watched a movie. The fixit guy thought he was my "big man" here to protect me. Wayne is not big, but it was rather amusing. The fixit guy also thinks it's possible someone has been watching me and that's why they broke into my place. It's a terribly disturbing thought but it doesn't make a lot of sense. I've also been told to move. Then the fire alarm went off and is still going, 3 hours later.

Good thing there is a baby party tomorrow; it will be nice to be with family. Hopefully no one will bust another wall while I'm gone...I had such a great night last night before that, it's really a shame it had to end so badly. Yah, great times last night. Oh yah, when I called home in tears in the middle of the night, my parents thought I was Meaghan.
