Okay, here's the deal:  My office was broken into over the 4th of July holiday.  My computer, my brand new Dell computer, was stolen along with all my personal stuff on it.  Thank God I had made backups 1 week ago so most everything can be recovered.  Still sucks though.

The Ultimate Breakfast Cereal.
The Ultimate Breakfast Cereal.
I've had to go and change all my usernames/passwords for everything that I can think of.  This is a chore seeing as how I've been on the web since 1995.  I have approximately 342 usernames and passwords in my head ... okay, that's a lie.  But it's a lot and a lot of them aren't even mine (parents, customers, etc.).  This is not fun.  Not fun at all.

They not only got my computer (an Athlon X2 4400+ with 2gbs 667 Mhz Ram, 160gb hard drive, 16x DVD Read/Write, All-in-one card reader, keyboard, mouse) ... but they got my sweet-ass 19-inch widescreen LCD monitor and my new 2GB Flash Drive that had all my writing on it.

I was able to recover my writing from a lone zip file on my old computer (left untouched) from when I transferred it to the new computer.  So my unpublished work (4 novels, 30+ short stories, and a bunch of bad poetry) are saved.  

All this I can deal with, I can take it in stride, I can live with it.  But here's the kicker ... they stole my Capt Crunch Peanut Butter cereal

And my Golden Grahams and my bag of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups and two bags of potato chips.

To take a man's Peanut Butter Crunch is beyond criminal.  It's beyond humane.  It's ... it's ... pure evil.  Blasphemy.  The ultimate breakage of the Golden Rule.

Excuse me while I go cry in the corner.
