What have you done with your life? My guess is nothing, that's the only reason people like you would even step to me. Have a great Christmas. Pour a tall glass of Hater-Ade for me lol, you sound like you could use it. Not that I should suggest killing brain cells, you sound like you need the couple you're hanging onto.

No, they didn't catch the person so I pretty much got screwed on that one. But luckily I have good insurance and most of my truly sentimental stuff is at my family's home in Michigan. Some of the things taken will never be replaced but I can't control that. Just thankful to be alive and safe, and hope most of you (the non-crabby ones) are having a good holiday thus far. Somehow being stripped bare of everything of value made me realize they can't take what's inside your soul. I initially freaked out because I lost half my wardrobe and couldn't dress properly for work. But the love came back to me, even though I was dressed like a mess for a few days. I cannot even believe still how much care, concern, and support everyone has given me. I thought I was going to fall apart things got so rough but friends and family got me through it. On this forum and IRL, luckily there are still a lot of good people out there.
I doubt that the person who did this to me will ever be caught. I assume it was for drug money, because I have a hard time wrapping my brain around the idea that someone would have done this consciously. It is scary because there is no doorman in my building. I wasn't the only one hit, and this building has basically been on lockdown ever since. Can I just say, seriously, I HATE the people who leave the door open for the person behind them. There should be a law to make that a $1500 fine or something in this city because it's NEVER okay. Maybe one day I will be rich enough for proper security. I guess that's my goal for 2014. I tried to save money on rent, look where it got me. Penny wise and pound foolish. Well, not exactly pennies but I still am beating myself up over it. Anyway, cheers to everyone on CD and hopefully we have a good New Year.
I am not drinking 100 year old scotch on the roof right now LOL. Try a 1992 bordeaux that came out for the season on a hardwood floor. It is very, very silent in here. Very empty. And thank God my client gave to me, because I think I would lose my mind drinking that cheap sh*t right now. The other thing I have learned: the closer to Christmas Day, the higher the quality of alcohol you need. These are things I wished people had told me growing up. You can't joke around with the Absolut or any of that crap once this time of year hits. You need the real sh*t. And other than good people, that is what I am most grateful for. Once you let love embrace you, the rest becomes easy. But when you get to be alone, at peace... with God... that is the best. I feel at peace. Even though I have nothing but a check and little else. He walks with us, at strange times.

For me Christmas time has always been a time of peace and healing. No liquor involved. Just coming together with your family and loved ones to hang up ornaments and prepare dishes. A time to just be, not stress about anything at all. At Christmas it can be so peaceful and silent almost like the world has stopped turning. Luckily i still have some family left not too far from here so i don't have to spend the holidays in my box. But my heart and soul goes out to those ppl who have to spend the Christmas alone, to those who are struggling with addiction, domestic abuse. To those with physical illness, mental health issues, deep poverty etc. there are a lot of ppl out in this world we call Tellus. Anyways, i have to pack up my things now for the upcoming trip tomorrow. Merry Christmas and hopefully a better new year than the last.
And finally remember we ALL bear the burden of life, some more and some disproportionately less.

Wow I must've missed the story that happened to you but glad you are ok.

Plenty of people have sex on Christmas, 9 months later a baby pops out, 9 months after that its off to your local court house to face a judge who has to decide a subpoena that was issued by your ex girlfriend who wants child support money! Overall Merry Xmas.

Hater-ade?? How about you pour me a glass of 100 year old scotch? (LOL) I can just borrow some of your brain cells. It's not like you are using them.
