Well, today was an interesting day. I went into work today knowing that I had finished all of my work yesterday, thus hoping for an email from my traveling boss giving me more. Needless to say, that didn't happen. So, I spent another day at work browsing the Internet. But boy, the fun had just started!
I came home before any of the Wrights and found the front door a bit hard to open. No biggy. Walked into my room and noticed my laptop was gone. Biggy. My hope was that this was a prank or that the Wrights needed it for some reason today and had failed to contact me. Well, it wasn't a prank, and the Wrights hadn't needed it. It was needed apparently by the somebody that had decided to break in and steal it along with its bag, a set of headphones and some checks. To our knowledge, nothing else was taken. The Arlington policeman told me when he came that this was a crime that had been happening quite frequently over the last month and that the thieves were smart (wore gloves, no traces, etc.). I was really hoping they would have left a note saying something like, "We took your laptop, sucker!" so I could at least stare at it and possibly frame it someday. Unfortunately, there was nothing left except a pit in my stomach.
Being taken like this is a pretty weird feeling.
