A bit bruised...
Oct. 1st, 2005 02:34 pmOK. For those of you who do not know: I was mugged & robbed Thursday night. I was half a block from my house, walking my lady to her car. I got 5' away from where she was parked, got jumped from behind. I lost $170 and my October bus pass. The best news: They caught the bastards that did this. All 3 of them. The good news: I'm still alive. The bad news: I have a black eye, and 3 bloody cuts to the face. Pavement doesn't taste good....But chocolate does. If you feel like dropping by, bring milk chocolate. Not skittles.
For those of you who already know: thank you to
falconoflight and Mikalen for coming to visit (and thank you again, Mikalen for being a helpful boy to help me get my homework done), thank you also to
chipuni and
jilara for the chocolate.
Anyone who has important stuff to tell me regarding your life: I've been a few days behind on LJ. On Thursday, I'd woken up @ 6:30am and didn't get to sleep until literally 4:25am Friday. My girlfriend prohibited me from the computer for the most part, so I didn't get to read much. If it's important, call me. You can find my cell # here.
I'm okay. Really. A bit abraised, but I'm fine.

Date: 2005-10-01 10:41 pm (UTC)(If not, sue the mother fscking $#!+ out of them. Hell, even if they were recovered, you should do that anyway. A bit abraded, certainly -- but Cali's got some of the most victim-friendly recovery laws in the States.)
And: I would send you some chocolate almond bark (you're supposed to melt it to chocolate-coat stuff), but I dunno how quick it would get there, and I dunno if I could get any dry ice with which to make sure it doesn't melt en route. So, virtual chocolate. Until I'm back in the Bay.
SiliCon's coming up this next weekend, and Bill Blair (http://www.alienactor.com/) is going to be there. I wish I could go, but I can't... rather wish you could, though. I think he's going to be giving a talk on prosthetics, but I'm not entirely sure. Certainly would be interesting in any case.
*snugs* Glad to hear you're alright. But talk with a therapist about this -- it's a traumatic experience, and it's possible you're going to end up with PTSD from it if it's not caught early.

The other good news: you're catching up on your sleep considerably faster than I am.

Date: 2005-10-02 09:32 pm (UTC)On the positive side, though, you have the closure of knowing the bastards got caught...though, I know that doesn't help the bruises and abrasions heal any faster or refill your pockets with the stolen money and bus pass.
The best news here, from my point of view, is that you're okay (Yes, for a certain value of *okay*ness.) and have people who care about you and whom you care for there with you. Take care and heal as quickly as possible.
(((hugs)))

Keep smiling, it makes you feel better and confuses the F*ck out of you enemies.
