going going gone
so i just tried typing this and lost everything. this is becoming a week of loss for me:
two days ago i was the innocent victim of petty crime. while at work, lifeguarding on the beach in collaroy, some filthy mongrel came into our office and stole my mobile phone and wallet. the phone would normally not be as big of an issue had i not been able to access my hotmail account for the last 2 weeks. now with the loss of the phone i have lost contacts on email and the mobile in the same two weeks. not the end of the world i know. my wallet contained 5 bucks, drivers license, boat license, medicare card, credit card, ATM card, and library card. all of them a pain in the ass to replace but once again, not the end of the world. however, the clincher and real low blow was the theft of my wedding ring. i had taken it off and put in my locker earlier in the day when i had taken the rescue board for a paddle into the water. the loss of this is what really pissed me off. the sentimental value on this ring is beyond monetary compensation. i want swift vengeance upon the little fucker that took my wedding ring. i do not know who the person is, aside from pure scum. so i am sending bad kharma his/her way, and invite anyone and everyone else to do the same.
now not only do i need to replace all the i.d. cards in my wallet, but also shop for new wallet, phone, and now ring. fortunately, work has pledged to cover the cost of those three items, but for me the ring is irreplacable.
