Someone really wanted to come in our cozy home.
I came home from work last Friday and the first thing I noticed was that our computer was not in its usual place. I looked in the basement (we keep the printer down there) and it was not there. After a couple of texts back and forth between me and Nate I realized that he was not hiding it from me. He asked me if I saw any sign of a break-in and I said no until I noticed that my dining room curtains were off a little.(My parents recently helped me put up the curtains and they were all perfect). So I checked that window and saw the locks broken on the floor. I freaked out and ran out of the house, got in my car and drove to our one and only friends house (her husband works with Nate). I drove to her house frantically because I wasn't sure if the robber was still in our house. She came back with me and I called 911 on my way back to my house. In about 1 minute there were 4 cop cars in front of my house with the 7+ policemen walking around the house. After about an hour a detective came and fringerprinted the window (which gave our window a nice black coating). There were prints on the window(and he also noted how clean my window was:-)), but the prints were not strong enough to be detected. On a funny note (although I did not find it funny at the time)...one of the policemen said "At least they didn't take your Charlie Brown Christmas tree". How dare he offend my small tree that was the perfect size for our small Queens apartment. So, we got lucky and only had our laptop stolen. What a dumb robber. We got a call two days after the robbery and the detective said they think they have booked the guy that did it. Wow, that was fast. Makes me feel a littl better, but having our computer back would really make me feel better. So, that's our story. I took pictures of the window, but we have no laplop and no way to upload pictures anymore. Yikes!!! What will I do???? And to all of you who make fun of me for having so many pictures up on facebook? I am sure glad I have done that since our pictures were all on our laptop. So, I will continue taking lots of pictures and hopefully one day start putting up tons and tons of pictures on facebook:-)
