On Saturday afternoon, somebody robbed our house. They took R's laptop computer, my computer (fifteen-inch Macintosh Powerbook G4), my non-functional Canon Powershot A80 camera, and my non-functional iPod Nano.
I haven't checked to see when I last backed up my computer, but I don't think this is a catastrophic loss. They did not take my passport, and I had my wallet with me.
I had been thinking that I was about due to replace my computer, and was coming to grips with not having a functional camera. The iPod stopped working months ago. It's going to be much harder to get things done without a functional computer, and I don't know when I'll be able to afford to replace it. Argh to that.
Apparently they started to take my fancy-schmancy road bike, but abandoned it in the front yard for some reason (perhaps the fact that I removed the pedals?). The Jolly Roger is fine, and R's bikes are fine, too.
That's all for now. I went mountain biking this weekend, and am covered in scratches and bruises. Plus I used up my helmet, and am glad for the existence of helmets.
