So, whether or not y'all noticed, I've been away from BoB for a few weeks now. The Reason? Well, to keep it short, my family and myself have been violated and stripped of our sense of security.
The story goes like this...
My family and myself had been away for the day. Work and visits in another town. In that time, a group of individuals that I have yet to think of a name for that describes the level of scum within them (assuming it WAS a group) decide to break into my home (in broad F'ing daylight, mind you) through one of our several doors that had been pried open, not to steal (at least we hadn't noticed anything missing) but to vandalize. These punks went to all of our running water fixtures, above and below, plugged the drains and let the water run. ALL DAY! Needless to say, coming home to inches upon inches of water, everywhere. Our entire house has been ruined. Carpeted, granite and hardwood floors, all the walls (drywall is a sponge) gone. Our brand new bathroom downstairs is completely gutted now. Furniture, computers, phones, personal belongings, trashed. Just about everything is damaged in some way. Especially downstairs where, of course, all of our storage had to be.
What get's me is the balls of steel these little f*cks had. To assume that just because the cars were gone that the house was empty. Which leads me to believe it was a little more calculated than just random vandalism. Seems like they knew something, because let me assure you, had I been there... The police DID say that our whole street had been hit in some way or another in recent weeks though. Not to this extreme.
By the sounds of things you'd think I live in the ghetto or something. On the contrary, I live in a rather nice, secluded neighbourhood. There's the problem. Hidden, quiet and predictable.
Anyway Gents, I don't want pity, don't feel sorry for me (the insurance company is slowly taking the pain away, hell, we're practically getting a new house) I'm just letting y'all know where I've been and what's up. It's a good way to be raped of your privacy when something like this happens. After what the Locksmiths slapped on our doors and windows we might as well have thrown a moat in the yard to boot.
I'll post pictures of the damage when I get them on my NEW computer... F'in F. :x
Perhaps "after" pictures when the contractors are done too.
Nice to be back.
P.S.
A sincere apology to joshoowah, before all of this, he was kind enough to hold a beautiful Caminetto Red Briar until pay day for me, then shit hit the fan and I had to back out which is embarrassing but I say acceptable under the circumstances.
