TVless

I have no TV to keep me occupied, so I just thought I'd take this time to complain that I have no TV now. My apartment got broken into, DURING THE DAY, and they stole my TV, laptop, the box the laptop came in, and my spare car key.

I left my apartment at about 6:45 am on Monday, and got back at 5:45 to find that my patio door had been pried open with some crobar or something and my stuff was gone. I am sad about my TV, but I am really sad about my netbook that I had only had for a couple of months. Since they stole the box the netbook came in too I bet it'll make it a lot easier to sell somewhere.

Then there is the spare car key that normally sat on my bookshelf. Its not there anymore. Of course it is the kind of key that has the clicker thing attached to it, so all they would have to do is know approximately where my car would be parked and push the button and my lights will conveniently flash for them! YAY! Luckily I now have somewhere else to park my car so it SHOULDN'T be a problem.

No one else got broken into and I think the burglars were around and saw me leave. Haven't been able to talk to any neighbors yet to see if they heard or saw anything. Aaaaaaargh! Really can't believe this, it makes me soooooo angry. Who breaks into an apartment in BROAD DAYLIGHT?!?!

So now I sit here in silence and I have fired up the ole desktop. She's a slow starter but once she's on she's fine as long as you don't stress her out too much. Internets only, skype is a little rough and if you need to open itunes you are pretty much gonna be sitting here all night. Luckily I always bring my ipod to work with me so I still have it and have been listening to the podcasts. I have pretty much listened to everything though, so it looks like I will have to try to fire up iTunes tomorrow. :-/

Complaint letters

No, I never update this blog, but I really wanted to post this somewhere . . . it was too good to pass up. Part of my job now entails receiving and replying to complaint letters. They are all pretty ridiculous, but I think this one is a hall of famer:

After putting up with every other nail head coming off and every other screw head stripping, I, my family and friends, and any other person I talk to, will never again buy these piece of shit products of yours. Take these chinese pieces of shit and shove them. I know texans are not true Americans, but I never thought they would stoop so low as to put their name on a product that is so cheap and crappy. Hope you can sleep at night while Americans are looking for jobs and the chinese are laughing their asses off at a bunch of stupid-assed texans. Hope your children grow up being Okies. At least they are American.
