ReLo'd to BA from SD

in late 2006, relocated my angst, business, and social life to NoCal from SoCal ... just a 40-something chick in the 'burbs of the SF bay area who randomly posts about random topics ... the occasional quirky stories of dating (or not) at 40-ish, work-week cubeopolis frivolity, rambling musings on nostalgika, and the occasional introspective moments in life.(thanks for visiting! >p, b)

what i've learned ... pt. 3

Bookmark and Share

... along with part 1 and part 2
  • passport photos ... can be taken at select AAA locations
  • my bank ... STILL ROCKS! and MK is AWESOME!
  • waiting in lobby ... at the local police department - totally unexpected (!), where there was actually a "line" at ~ 3:30pm of the ~70K+ population city i live in
  • renewal expediting passport fee ... is $190 + change, so i can receive my passport in ~ 2-3 weeks (uh-huh)
  • cream currant scone ... STILL available at ~ 5:45pm at peet's and has the following nutritional value: 141 grams (serving), 590 calories, 300 calories (from fat), 34 g (total fat), 20 g (saturated fat), 0 g (trans fat), 140 mg (cholesterol), 580 mg (sodium), 62 g (total carbs), 2 g (fiber), 18 g (sugar), 8 g (protein), 15% (vitamin A), 2% (vitamin C), 8% (calcium), 20% (iron) ... hmmm? perhaps i'll stop the weekend intake of this tasty treat
  • memory didn't fail me, and the shitheads took 2 wallets ... tho' it was a little later than i anticipated. i turned in my property loss report on thursday after two days of checking out each room in my house for items taken. friday morn, i was talking to a friend about my random emotional progress on the burglary thing + my passport photo experience. FLASH! i realized 2 wallets were missing from the dresser where my jewelry was strewn around - one wallet on top of the dresser & other wallet in the dresser's top drawer. why do i know this? because last month, i went searching for a credit card and figured i'd find it in my other wallets. PLUS, i figured it was like shopping for new wallets again - so i'd switch out wallets for the 'fall season' (or something like that).
  • no more gas (and whatever other goods) for the shitheads ... at least one credit card in the wallets was used to purchase gas at two gas stations; the third attempt (all in the same day) had the fraud alert. nix on the credit card use.
  • small world event on thursday ... to be posted later.
... and to r|alex (who commented yesterday) for whom i owe a MAJOR POST about wassup -

PERMISSION TO BE MAD
[thanks for the reminder 'cuz i certainly haven't yet had
a healthy rant & rave about the fucking asshole shitheads!!!
(nice to type 'asterisk free' for a change)
there will be a post honoring being mad.]

thanks for the updates.... always important to include lessons learned.... they not only help you, but the rest of just poor saps who this just may happen to down the line. FYI -Lisa got into a big car wreck... the car was totalled but she is okay thank god (small 'g'), just a little back pain from the whiplash. I think she got a new car already yesterday. I hope all your bad BA karma is now exhausted and you can live in peace. As for the karma of the burglars... time will tell. However, karma can sometimes be a bitch. BIG HUG!!
