I'm a trend starter!

I'm really kind of stoked that i started this blogging trend among my friends :) I told one person I had started a blog, and now everyone's statuses on Facebook is "I started a blog on blogger.com!" It makes me really excited! Anywho. On a more serious note, my wallet was stolen out of my car on Friday evening and California High School. Can I just say that I went to al for 4 years, 2 of those years I drove there, and the summer after I graduate is when my shit gets stolen. Stupid. Anyway, I called the police department just now to file a report because I did have some important things in there such as my license, CSULB ID, debit card, gas card, library card, all that good stuff. Dad wanted a police report so that in case the people who stole it used my gas card, we wouldn't have to pay. But, the nice lady at the Sheriff Department said that it isn't a crime unless they actually used it so I would have to get a statement from the gas company to prove it was used since Friday. So, fun fact of the day: theft is NOT a crime! Who knew? I sure didn't. So, I am definitely mad about that. So now I have to find a way to get gas, because I drive all over the place, I have to get a new LB ID, license, and library card. So I'm off to get a new library card, and to see if the bank will give money to a 17 year old kid with no parents and no identification. Ha. Anyway, till next time!

  1. Now, it sounds like you forgot to bring 'em a box of doughnuts. That would have sped the proceedings. x.x

    Seriously, that sucks. In my time there, I've had a lot of stuff stolen; so I know the feeling x.x

    Sending a prayer for you; hoping everything works out.

  2. I bet the "nice lady" at the Sheriff's Department didn't believe your wallet was actually stolen, but thought you lost it. Or maybe there's a minimum dollar value on the loss before the authorities will bother.

    You should report your credit and debit cards lost / stolen to the issuing banks immediately. That's a better way to insure you don't pay for stuff thieves charge to your cards. Most states have laws limiting your loss from the time you report your credit card stolen. Debit cards, not so much. Usually if you report the cards missing in a timely manner, you won't be held responsible.
