My Computer Had Not Been Stolen. This is what was scrolling across the monitor:

I felt so violated.

Someone had used my computer.

Someone had opened every cupboard.

Someone had seen all my stuff and deemed it not worthy of stealing.

Someone came to visit:

And he hadn't even bothered to open the ONE door that was neatly organized and labeled:

Needing to connect with someone, I facebooked Drew:

I was out at a movie tonight with friends, and when I got home, it was obvious that someone had broken into our house. Every single cupboard door and drawer in the kitchen and desk were open. All the chairs and stools had been moved off the floor. And the screensaver on my computer said, "You are not alone..."I totally freaked out.

Yeah, you can tell dad.Why wasn't your first response, something like, "are you OK, mom? I love you"

Drew O

uum because if a screen saver says your not alone, you should probably deke out the door and run like mad

And then I noticed the note "Came to visit and borrow Evil Dead. Andrew"

Scared the shit outa me.

The whole thing was a joke. Andrew left the note. Thanks for being concerned. Love you.When did Clint and Max leave?


Drew O

at like 7 or something

And sure enough, a Clint and Max arrived home a few minutes ago.

"Hi mom. I'm going to Brian's for night. We're going to Seymour tomorrow. Bye"

"I'm off the Karyn's, bye."

They were in the house for 3 minutes.

I need a roommate.

Three things I'm thankful for:

1. They're home, safe. Sort of.

2. My worst fear ... (well, one of them) was realized tonight when I came home to a house that had been broken into, and I lived to tell the tale.

3. Friends who cry at movies.

Shalom,
