Eventuality

It Began One Beautiful Monday Afternoon.

The sun was hidden under layers of layers of clouds and it was muggy. The sky teased the ground with the occasional tiny little raindrop. I woke up around three this wonderful afternoon and prepared to get ready to go hang out with Lauren 'n Dawn 'n John for quite possibly the last time ever (tear) and I was faced with a shocking sight.

In the night, I was visited by either a complete jackass, or the -dumbest- car thief ever. My passenger window was totally shattered, glass all over the interior of my car and a bunch on the ground by the door.

Had the neighbors still been sleeping at3:30, I'd have woken them up. Most unpleasantly.

The odd thing is, it's happened before, to the same window, in the same car, back when my dad owned it. =/

Anyway. We (well, the 'rentals--I made a point to stay with the people who could keep me distracted from my poor car) called up the police. Not that they'll probably ever find out who did it, but at least they helped out.

Scenario One: Some jackass decided to break my window. Fucker.

Scenario Two: It's possible that somehow it was accidentally broken. By a flying rock from the road or something. Possible, but very unlikely, because the glass looked like it was hit hard. Harder than a rock could manage on its own.

Scenario Three: Some jackass decided to try breaking into my car. They used a screwdriver to try and pry the window down, but ended up shattering completely. They panicked, and left.

Now, if Three is indeed what happened--it's the most likely one--here's why this person is the biggest moron around.

I don't lock my car. I can't lock my car. The locks jam on both doors, and it's almost impossible to unlock them from the outside with the key. So, dipshit here doesn't even bother TRYING to open the door. He (or she) just tries getting through the window. THEN they reach in and -lock- the door, thinking they're unlocking it. Yes, when I was looking at the glass, that door was locked. Nobody who lives here has locked that door since I got the car. So once the idiot locked himself out of the car (bear in mind that there is now a huge hole where the window was that he could just get in) he takes off. Leaving behind my car (if that's what he was after) and a $180 CD player that isn't even MOUNTED. One quick pull and that thing will pull right out. There's only electrical tape holding the wiring back =P He (or she, again =p) left everything INSIDE the car exactly as it was.

Had I not spent the night over at Martin's (after some bowling) there would be many things broken/ripped/torn/etc. in my house. Distractions are nice. =)

One day, sweet Toyota, I shall avenge your window. (I'm getting a new one Friday, tho'.)
