So, I'm going to use my own blog to shamelessly promote one of the authors we work with…Donald Miller. His 60 city tour is getting ready to hit some East Coast cities and I'd love for you to check it out if he's in your area. I am going to be at the show Friday in York, PA (gonna spend some time with the family and get my puppy back!!!). I'd love to see you there…it's not far from Baltimore, Philly, NJ…wherever you are on the coast. He's also got shows in NYC, Jamestown, Asheville, Charlotte…well, just check it out for yourself!
While I appreciate the fact that you didn't cause any harm to myself, my roomie or my dog…
And while I appreciate that you weren't able to come into my house and take all of the rest of my stuff because my dog probably scared the bejeebies out of you…
I DO NOT appreciate you taking my Macbook. The white one with the kickin' art gel sticker on it? The one that had over 4,000 pictures of my travels, friends, dogs, etc.? The one with my bajillion iTunes songs on it? The one that had my most important documents strategically arranged in well-labeled folders? Ring a bell? Hmmmm???
And, NO. I do not have a backup. Thank you to everyone who has asked, though, because it makes me feel ALL the better about losing all of my stuff. Apparently, I deleted all of my files on my .mac/mobile me account so that I could restructure and update. Just hadn't actually DONE that yet.
So…
It's just a computer. I know that. It's just music. It's just pictures. It's just my personal information in the hands of some hooligans. My life hasn't ended, everyone is safe and the world is still spinning away. I just need a few days to accept it.
Therefore, east nashville thieves, I will soon be able to forgive and forget. Just don't try it again or you are going to get more than my dog barking at you when you climb through the window.
