: some of you know that steph and i have had a pretty rough year. we're taking it in stride. at this point, i'm getting real frustrated. waiting for a nice calm season. last week i got t-boned, totaled the truck. nobody was hurt, thank God, however my truck was totaled. trucks are replaceable. we got a new one. then thursday someone took out my mailbox and trash coral i built. not cool. again, nobody was hurt, but somebody could have easily been checking the mail. i was home but i didn't hear it. i guess i must be going deaf. called the police, they said i had to go to the station and pick up a self reporting form and mail it in. not certain if they would even do anything, so i took up the evidence left behind, (headlight, trim, paint) and did a little investigating. found the car that fits the description, and realized that my patience is so thin if i approach them, it's likely to get real ugly. i know where they live, but what would i say? hey, you left this in my grass? sputtering trying not to curse. is it so hard to knock on someones door and say, hey i messed up, i'm sorry?
: right now, i stand frozen. as Chevell put it.."i don't want to fight...i don't want to prove i'm right" the thing is , a part of me does. at least tell them to slow down. the next one i build will be stronger. much stronger.
: somebody tell me not to go to their house and give them attitude....
