I live in a pretty populated area of town with a lot of young professionals. Not really a crime filled area.

So I came home this morning from sleepover with the girls. Someone had busted my passenger side window and stolen a red bag I keep in my car. Wanna know what was in it. Yes, my knitting (what? it helps me relax while I watch TV).

Someone stole my knitting and broke my window.

This wouldn't be so bad, unless my car hadn't been ransacked just two months ago (they left the knitting, but took 34 cents (approx 14 Euros). There are six other cars in my parking area and mine is targeted.

They broke my window for a bag of knitting.

I can't afford this shit and I feel like setting up a perch and getting a gun.

Then the paranoia sets in and I wonder who is out to get me (the answer to that is no one, but that is where my mind goes).

Then I get the rage and want to bomb the nearby college and kill all the crackheads.

Yeah I'm sane.

Going to cling wrap my door now.

So I'm curious about you, so this is what I'm going to do. I'm going to tell you three things about me and I'd love it if you comment with three things about you. Just do it like this:

Female American

1. I read things before I watch them. I like to know the way things turn out. I read all of the Supernatural episodes before I watched them. (tv.com) I chose this fandom based on the strength of the stories and the fanfiction. Then I watched the DVDs twice in a row. I don't really listen to music, but I read tons of musical biographies.

2. I spend every day five days a week in front of Adobe suite. I ask other people to make me icons and pictures. I get so tired of doing that stuff and I have inferiority complex.

3. I'm a media whore. I can't get enough of knowing what is going on in the lives of stars. I hate myself a little bit for it.

I honestly want to know about you.

So just comment away...

I'm usually not personal here, this is my fun fantasy work, but lets take it to the real place for a minute.

So this morning on the way to work I stopped for a bagel.

I found out that someone who had been really important to my development as a human being OD'ed last night. I am completely shell shocked. She probably didn't know the wonderful impact she had on my life, but it was one little thing that she did, that she probably didn't remember, that changed my life for the better.

NEVER think that your random act of kindness doesn't get noticed. The world can be bleak and harsh, but just a smile can change a person's day. A cup of coffee can change someone's life. You aren't going to get a fucking parade for being nice, but it can have an impact.

Also drug users and people who kill themselves. MOST SELFISH BASTARDS. Welcome to the world, its hard and not a sitcom. Live in it. Go through it. I can only say it because I walked through that shit and I'm still here. I know what I'm talking about.

The world doesn't revolve around you. Interact with it. Be part of it.
