STOLEN

STOLEN

Just when I was getting close

Between 5:35 and 6:00 last night my laptop was stolen. Now...I've never been one to bitch about anything but this tears it. I get up to use the bathroom, five minutes and I come back and its gone! Everything I had was on my laptop, everything! A book I worked on for the last six years and was close to the final revision, gone! All the graphics I was given to build the smx for vStyler's Master WB's gone! Every damn thing I had is gone. Bad enough I have to struggle every damn day just to get a freakin' cup of coffee or something to eat and now I got to deal with this!?!? BULLSHIT!!

Bad enough I haven't got a pot to piss in or a window to throw it out of and now this. Bad enough I got to deal with being homeless and stuck in this godawful fuckin' town. Now I got nothing...zip, zero zilch nada not a damn thing left! I am so sick and fuckin' disgusted with this shit. I mean...I don't steal, cheat or lie my way through life like so many of these other assholes do. I don't do drugs, I don't drink. What put me here was a couple of injuries that prevent me from doing manual labor but that's all there is. Sitting down is not an option because my legs swell up and I have to keep them elevated. Standing for long periods of time is also not an option as it kills my back. Do I qualify for assistance...no. Why...because according to welfare I'm still capable of working. Working at what? I'm damn near 60 years old. Who the hell is gonna hire an old fart like me? Too old for most jobs. Nobody wants a self taught computer tech because I have no certification, like I need a piece of paper to tell me I know how to do stuff. Just letting you know I'm out of it again and this time I doubt if I'll be able to get back and if I do it won't be for quite some time. The last time I got lucky, an acquaintance that doesn't know me from Adam gave me, not lent me but gave me the 180 dollars to buy a used laptop. She didn't even want me to pay her back. When I tell her this she's gonna freak! there is no way in hell I'm going to ask her or even hint at it. So...vStyler., I'm sorry but I won't be able to finish the skins. Its been fun guys. I can't say when I'll be able to get back here. My bitchin' for the day.

I think Jafo could arrange it so all the spammers get re-routed to you, then you could shop 'til you drop. He might even be able to sign you up for one of those big lottery prizes. ;)

Footwear....Nike or Uggboot ... just for starters...;)

No no....no spammers. I just got rid of 186 of 'em from my spam folder at Yahoo mail. All they want is the three letter word that starts with ... not gonna say it. And money that i ain't got. I'm tempted to send them a sock full of coal before Xmas.

I was going to send you some topless tops, but I'm told they wouldn't make it through customs

Same with topbottoms and bottomless tops... topless bottoms....and not because they're illegal or contraband or anything.

No, it's those greedy, selfish SOB's at customs confiscating them to take them home for themselves. :-"

Anyhow, putting the levity aside for the moment, I'm pleased to see you're still able to log in here and keep us up to date... to feel the community spirit right behind... er, beside you.  Yeah, there's some pretty decent folk here, and I'm sure somebody will come up with a solution to get you up and running, should it come to that.

In the meantime, keep on keeping on, ol' matey. :sun:

Uvahs life took a turn leaning towards catastrophy, and it brought out the best of us in the community and we sorted it... WE are Wincustomize and WE ROCK !!

Uvah, I am so glad so many people responded to your plight. It makes one feel good about the good people in the world but I cannot help but feel bad as well, Three years ago, when I reported on these forums that my computer had been stolen, I received all of 9 comments from the community. I guess you have formed more alliances here than I have. If there is anything I can do to help, feel free to PM me. I recently received a small settlement from my Moms life insurance so am in a position to be a little generous! <3
