- crickets. But I've said enough about those lately. But you should have seen the one we caught last night. It was h-u-g-e and fat and juicy. Then this morning I found one crawling up the side of our bed. I tried to get it, and it had such a springy jump that it flew up in the air and narrowly missed hitting my head. Yes, that is how high those creepy critters can jump.
- the pain in my leg. But I don't want to talk about that either.
- and last of all, finding out that somebody in California used our bank card to buy a bunch of stuff from Target and Sound Connections (whatever that is), plus a meal at McDonald's. How did they get our bank information? We don't know. But we do know that we're suddenly $900 poorer. And that does not impress me. Not one bit. I commented to Josh that if we met this person(s) face-to-face, I would feel an overwhelming urge to punch him/her as hard as I could. With no remorse. I find that kind of angry/violent feeling a little scary when it surfaces inside of myself. I like to think I'm a non-violent person. But $900?? What kind of person can live with him/herself after doing that? It's not like we have money to spare. Now you know--fraud can happen to anyone.
I can only remember three times in my life when I've been purposely violent towards someone else. But I'll save those stories for another day.

whoo, this cyrillic, russian whatever (I am so ignorant!) is confusing me! I am so sorry you got hit with fraud. I would probably be violent too. It's like how I felt when my bike got stolen. I imagined for weeks, the kind of evil things I would do to the thief when I found him/her. Fortunately for the thief, he/she got away with the crime. I like to think that someday, he/she will break their nose and ankles falling over a giant pothole.
Can you get the money back? You should be able to, I think. That sucks. Do you have to get new bank cards now?
Grrrr . . . . i am totally fuming on your behalf. Made me a little paranoid too. I was wondering the same thing as Margaret about getting your money back, but maybe that's only in the ideal world. Take comfort in knowing that someone much greater than us is the ultimate judge.
I'm a little confused with the cyrillic as well. I just recently had an experience where I wanted to punch a guy in his face. I also think of myself as a non violent type of person.
I feel your pain sarah
