So on Tuesday some lame jerk broke into our car and stole the stereo. The stereo probably got him a quick $20, but he (I am sure it was a man) left us with a broken window in the middle of winter in Denver and a cracked dashboard to deal with. So, feel bad for us, but not that bad - it is a basic cost of living in cities I suppose and we could have and should have taken the detachable face off. The window is already fixed - Derek is so very efficient, but it looks like we will be making our own music for a least a little bit longer. I guess I have bad luck when it comes to car stereos because, even though I never have nice equipment, I have had a car broken into three times and an attempted break-in another time. Jerks!
That is all that is really new as of tonight. School is a lot of work but I am really enjoying being back at it. Derek is doing great and trying to spend this free time before he starts school painting. Oh here's a good one for you: Yesterday when the autoglass guy came by to fix the window Derek locked himself out (I've done it a few times already, but this was his first time). He didn't have keys to move the car so the guy had to wait while Derek called our landlord to ask him to come unlock the door. 45 minutes later he called our landlord back to see what the hold up was and the guy said he wasn't able to come, but that Derek (in his slippers and no coat in 15 degree weather) could walk over there or wait an hour or so!!!! Funny that when Derek called him he didn't mention that "be right there" really meant "no I can't come right now." So, the autoglass guy left and Derek broke in the bathroom window and then the autoglass guy came back and then everything worked out in the end.
