PISSED
My car was broken into last night.
I walked out to my car this morning as the snowflakes were falling. When I got to my car door, the lock was totally pulled out of its socket. I opened the door and saw the dashboard ripped out and my CD player gone.
The inside of my car is a mess and I’m rip-shit.
UPDATE: I have camera phone photos.
1. They pulled Uma’s lock right out.
2. goodbye music in car.
3. They didn’t clean up after themselves. AND my Rogue Wave CD was in the player, so they made off with that. I’d like to tell the s. hadley petty thieves that they are messing with the wrong woman. Sadly, though, this is one of those things about which nothing can be done. It’s just a reality check.
one more photo for good measure…

Oh NO!!! That’s horrible! Keep us posted! That’s so weird– your driveway is set back so far!

That is what our Honda looked like Thanksgiving weekend 2004. We had just moved into the neighborhood. It was like, welcome! And we were like, thanks!
Only at that point it had been raining for at least 24 hours and the glass had been shattered on the driver’s side instead of the lock being jimmied.
Either way, it’s a horrible feeling. You wish they’d just be neater about it right? Grrrr.

despite my better judgment, I’m taking this very personally. Uma (my car) is my baby. She’s been with me through the good and the bad and this is how she gets repaid.
Alas, it may be time to get a new one. I can’t even get the car into reverse. In their haste to get the stereo out they jammed the gear shaft.

This happened to me once. I took it personally too. I know exactly how you feel.
In my case, no one was ever caught, but the police found a stolen car next door without any gas in it, so it just looked like hooligans stole a car and drove it until it ran out of gas, tried to take my car (they were unable to since it was a heap of a thing) (they stole the stereo and all my CDs which I kept conveniently in this giant book of CDs) and then stole a different car down the street.
If your car isn’t fixable, get a new car. If your car is fixable, get your car detailed. You’ll feel a lot better about it when your car is clean.
Good luck, lady.

Jerks.
My house has been broken into, and I can tell you the only thing that I was grateful for was that they didn’t make a random, gratuitous mess.
I know just how you feel, and I’m really, really sorry.

this totally sucks! i’m so sorry.
my car was stolen, and later recovered, in Brookline Mass at 11:00 a.m. on a sunny weekday. when they recovered the car, it was clean, only because they took EVERYTHING in the car (i was on vacation and had all my luggage and everything). even the large bottle of extra strength tylenol, that i suddenly oh so sorely needed. they even took the headrests. HEADRESTS! but they did leave the little stainless steel pipe cleaning tool that they used to work the lock, just to spite me.
i hope you can get her fixed and back on the road.
