My long weekend started off nicely. I went to a pumpkin patch and a corn maze on Thursday (pictures), and it was lovely. On Friday I saw the Decemberists, and they put on a fine show as usual. My friend and I were going to buy tickets for the New Pornographers the next day, but it was cancelled. We went to hang out, and my car got broken into. (pictures) HOORAY! So awesome. They took the crappiest cd player on the planet, I swear. And some of my favorite cds, without cases. AND two boxes of Viactiv Calcium Chews. Wow, that's some hardcore thievery - your next outing will not be thwarted by threats of osteoporosis, for sure. They left a Harry Potter book, my map book, my umbrella, and a few random cds. I'm gonna list the cds they stole, just for my inventory. I probably won't replace most of them since I won't be getting any insurance money from this (not enough lost to offset the deductible), but hopefully I can get burned copies from friends for the ones I don't have on my computer.

Aww, you look so cute and happy with that pumpkin!
Sounds like you had a happy weekend, aside from your car, which is sad. I'm surprised people actually bother to steal CDs and car stereos these days -- it seems like far too much effort. My advice: only keep copies in the car as a 5¢ CD-R is a lot cheaper to replace than a $15 CD and then your originals don't get scratched up either.
And stealing the calcium chews? That is beyond weird.
I can send you Sleater-Kinney!!! You know I can! And maybe I can see if Brendan has any of the others...I'm pretty sure he might and I can send those, too! I LOVE YOU AND HATE ASSHOLES!
