And to kind of make a long story a little bit short, my car got broken into an additional two or three times that same week.

Wow.

So the people who came and broke into my car initially, it was an easy target because you have to make a police report.

You have to find an auto body shop that can fix your car.

It's not like I can just fix my vehicle and then life didn't stop.

At the time, I was driving a 2006 Dodge Charger.

I've since learned that that was a particularly easy car to break into because all you really had to do was stand there by the driver's side door.

And with the right amount of force and the right shape tool, you could just punch the manual lock out of the door and then it would just open.

So over the course of these three break-ins, they took all of my grad school textbooks.

Well, full of knowledge.

The motivating factor there was is that my textbooks were in a coach bag.

So they took the bag that had all the books in it, right?

They got my laptop that I carried around for writing.

They got my lifting belt and my lifting shoes.

They took everything.

But one of the like salt in the wound things for me was they took my iPod, which is whatever, but they took my auxiliary cord.

I had this like double-ended auxiliary cord because it was 2012 and you still needed that to play your music for your speaker, right?

And this cord...

was bright green, neon green.

I have to this day never seen a piece of audio equipment this color.
