News

I'm realizing that Itunes at work is much more enjoyable when you don't keep skipping over the songs you don't know, and trust that your significant other would not spend her hard-earned Itunes money on crap. I'm so grateful that Staz has such great taste in music. I am able to escape the corporate monolith of top 40 radio and enjoy some really talented artists. In other news, I can say that my psrsonal effects have been violated for the second time in less than a year. I came out to my truck the other morning to go to work and after climbing in, went to pick up my glasses...not there. I looked all over the cab and nothing. What was all the more perplexing was I distinctly remembered placing them on the transmission hump the night before, since we had gone shopping and they had been in Staz's car. My only explanation was that someone had taken them, not a really hard task since I never lock my truck. I mean who's going to steal prescription glasses? Turns out someone would after all. I called the condo management lady and she said someone else had reported a minor theft, also from an unlocked car. So apparently some fu&$wad was just going from car to car and seeing if they were locked? and stole some glasses that were worthless to anyone but me. Apart from feeling violated, a part of me just can't rectify the "why" of it. If you're going to steal something, steal something valuable, like my $10 sunshade. Hell you turned down about $80.00 of tools in the unlocked toolbox. But glasses??? So now we're out about $150. Thats just a guess. I figure we will be lucky if thats all it will cost to get a new eye exam (since my prescription is at least 5 years old) and a new set of specs. In the meantime, I'm stuck squinting into the sun during the day and wearing my hopelessly outdated back up glasses at night. The ones Staz affectionately refers to as my 'Bill Gates' glasses. They are VERY 80's and pretty damn ugly to boot. Or maybe I can just squint my way home today.
