Things are same-old same-old here in Camp Hippo (Camp Evil?). Chicago continues to try to murder me, my job continues to suck out my soul, and I continue to not know what to do about it.
Also, a note for the future of the human race... if you're going to steal someone's wallet, at least RETURN THEIR FREAKING PLASTIC POKEMON. You have my freaking wallet, what the crap do you need my lovely little pokemon for now?! I've had him for ages, and he's made of 100% sentimental value because he got me through my photography course and comes everywhere with me in case I need a surprised looking prop. And you TOOK him, you jerkface, whoever you are, while you were apparently rooting through my bag! I'm sure he just got in the way and you threw him on the ground. Which is even worse. But you'll be happy to know that, yes, I am able to sleep at night now because I put a fraud warning in to the credit reporting agencies. So take THAT, you bum! None of my credit for you! Also bite me. And please return my student ID.
Apparently as a feature of my reporting my debit card stolen to my bank they removed charges I made before it was stolen. So my charge for groceries the night before got removed, and for some reason this makes me feel incredibly guilty. I mean, it's food. If I'm going to pay for anything put on my card, even if it wasn't me, it'd be food. Geez. Because I'm a bleeding-heart hippy, I'm probably going to call them tomorrow and tell them it's okay to give the grocery store their money. At least it wasn't a charge to one of the local stores, though. (P.S. Wallet thief? Those groceries are on your karma now. Even if I get the charge put back on my account.)
Aaaand in other news... I was out too late last night watching Mr. Vampire with a few friends (and getting marginally better at Halo? Maybe? I mean, at least I can fire and reload the gun now.) I highly recommend getting some silly friends together to watch it. I mean... unibrow priest, inept assistants, bizarre vampire lore, Cantonese, martial arts, and hopping vampires. I mean really, China wins for having a vampire myth that completely prevents the vampires from being at all menacing. It's not quality cinema by any means, and it was made in 1985, but it's still completely hilarious.

i'm so sorry to hear that your wallet got stolen. that has to be one of the worst feelings. when my purse got stolen a few years ago, i was just SO angry. it's such an invasion of privacy... well, it's an invasion in general. i hate that people have to be jerks sometimes. i hope that either the wallet turns up soon or that you can replace your stuff. blarg.
::hugs again::
seriously, come move to canada. i'm not saying people won't steal your stuff, but hey. you'll be in canada.

It actually got stolen almost a week ago now, but I spent most of the days immediately after thinking I'd just misplaced it, panicking, and then being really angry and vulnerable. Freaking thieves. At least they didn't actually get any money out of my accounts.

if you ever moved here, i would even give up my "no more roommates" rule. because it would be so much awesome fun to live with you.

Depending on how life goes over the next few years, we should totally move in together someday. Or even when we're older and famous we can share a vacation house or something. I'm picturing this someplace near water, with proper night skies but with enough people around that they could be frightened by our schemes during the day. ^_^
