So this has been a pretty difficult week. My rabbit died Monday, my wife’s firm is laying people off (she’ll get word next week if she’s getting cut), and yesterday someone broke into our apartment. We got home and the cat was locked up in one of the bedrooms, and my laptop was gone. That looks to be about the extent of what they took. There were no obvious signs of B and E (no windows were broken and none of the doors were open or damaged), so we’re thinking that someone used a key to get in, which would point us in the direction of the maintenance (since the only other people who have keys to our place are our parents).

I’m more terrified that they’ll come back than anything else.

Now where's my hat? I'm going to the outhouse.

That sucks. Although when I was in college, the place I was living in got broken into, but the amazing part was that we were ALL HOME UPSTAIRS AND DIDN’T NOTICE. The guy made off with the VCR and my coat.

It’s just so weird that all they took was the laptop. That’s it. They didn’t take any of the video game consoles or a TV or any of my wife’s jewelry or anything else of “value”. It looks like they may have rifled through one of the drawers looking for pills or whatever, but I can’t tell.

Was the laptop just lying there in front? Maybe it was a quick strike robbery.

Just got off the phone with my wife. She’s headed home from work early today. Rental office told her no one was scheduled to be in our place yesterday, so they’re gonna go ahead and change the locks for us. She’s gonna file a police report and attempt to find a serial number for the computer so that if it turns up (which I highly doubt), we know where it is.

just when I thought it couldn't get any weirder...

alright so against everyone’s better advice yesterday I went to go see leaves girl (in a public place so she couldn’t pull any shit). my reasoning was basically that we all make mistakes and regret them, and apologizing is a luxury few can afford. a lil bit o’ background: she has a boyfriend 90 minutes away, and somehow apparently she wanted a slice of the wisco pie even though I didn’t want anything like that from her. I liked being just friends. so anyway I guess she thought that her boyfriend (who had never met me) hated me and she needed to push me away so he would feel better. turns out, her boyfriend doesn’t really care about me or what I do, so she apologized for insulting me to get me to go away. I told her thank you, and that it was very nice of her to apologize. I went on to say how some of the things she said were kind of hurtful and mean and while I certainly didn’t hate her, her fake anger at me reminded me that women can be crazy and that I be careful who I talk to, stuff like that. when I said that she all of a sudden starts sobbing uncontrollably. I asked her what was wrong, and she just said ‘I need to go’ and left abruptly. so yeah that was really weird

No you didn’t. You went there to salve your conscience and/or to get an ego boost of being on the high ground because you felt she had wronged you. She had, but going for an apology from her was not about balancing any karma when we TOLD you she was batshit and you could not ascribe reasonable motives to anything she was going to say or do.

You went to feel like the good guy and that was the worst possible reason to go.

It’s not, your convincing yourself otherwise. This is going to sound patronizing as hell but every single person here is lying if they don’t do the same thing. It’s mean spirited and all sorts of awful but in situations like that, people want to have their ego boosted or to feel like they have the high ground.

It’s important to reflect on stuff like that and realize the error of your ways and grow beyond it. Again, not condescending, or patronizing, because we’ve all been there but because you’re young it’s hard to put yourself in the other person’s shoes.

You did the wrong thing, even though it doesn’t seem like it. Part of growing as a person is being able to realize that going and getting that temporary high isn’t worth the sort of karma, if you will, of actually following through. In the future, just sever all contact and run the situation through your head. You get to eat your cake and kick it too but without actually dragging someone through the thorns like that.

You’re an ok kid, Frisco, but you have to realize you didn’t do it for yourself, you did it to make her feel bad basically.

Also, when it comes to advice: people here are generally speaking from experience. It’s not some SO I SAYS TO MABEL I SAYS advice column from someone who’s sitting on a throne doling out advice they feel is perfect, it’s coming from people who have been through the proverbial shit sandwich.

Keep it in mind, especially considering the mind can play tricks and make you (the advice receiver) be shithouse crazy.

Also, I really, really need a beer. Why aren’t people allowed to drink at work?

On a more serious note, Wisco — I am not really pissed. You learn from your experiences, good and bad, and that’s what this is a learning experience. I don’t think making you feel worse does any good. As CC says, sometimes you have to learn through advice more than once. And you can choose to accept advice or not accept it. Either way, you will learn from the experiences of your decisions, good and bad.

One guy from Germany’s opening a brewery all by himself, focusing on German wheat beers, and there were two or three more in the works. Along with DC Brau, Chocolate City, and another I can’t recall, the author was saying DC could become a brewery city. I hope the article pops up tomorrow, I feel like I’m losing it.

3 Stars is another brewery, I know they’ve started brewing and I think their stuff has been released, but not sure beyond that.

One in the works will be the new one from the Birch & Barley/Churchkey team that will be housed in the Boilermaker Building at The Yards (SE, by the ballpark), focusing in sour beers.

i try and keep up on the local brew scene, but with so many coming, and so much going on down in my neck of the woods alone, it’s sometimes hard to keep track of the new projects! As a fan of german wheat beers, I’d love to find the article and see the details!

I’ve always been a big fan of this site

America was founded on the principle that one cannot have one’s cake and eat it too.
Within the 20th century, the ‘90s were hands down the greatest decade for a boy to be born and raised through. The pop-culture and technology was simply at its prime. We’ll start from the beginning. What do kids at the age from just being born to about six years old care about? That’s simple, breast milk; but more importantly, toys. Although the breast milk in the 90s was most likely delicious, there is no existing cryogenically frozen breast milk lab for me to prove it. However, I sure as hell can sell you on how awesome the toys were.
