yep. believe it or not, the trampoline was stolen. We're not sure when it happened. I'm thinking it had to have happened yesterday while we were all away. I doubt it could have happened last night cos I was up til 5am watching a spider wrap a worm up in silk.
I will miss the trampoline. The other one is still around. I wonder if we can order the replacement parts for it.
I still kind of can't believe that someone actually managed to steal it. That thing was such a pain in the ass to set up and take down that we didn't bother locking it up. In fact, I remember a conversation about it where we agreed that if someone actually bothered to take it all apart and sneak off with it, then they probably REALLY wanted it and therefore probably deserved it. the last time i took it apart it took me like 2 hours. pretty insane. makes me feel a bit weird about the security of the house though. if someone bothered to take apart and run off with the trampoline, they might come back for more precious dirt farm goodies.
anyway, i am sad to see it go. we had a lot of fun on that stupid thing.
But anyway, right now I'm at work and I'm about to lay out the classifieds. In the classifieds there is a section called the "Person to Person" section. Every now and then I put stuff in it just for the hell of it. So if you read this in the next couple of hours give me some stuff to run in this week's paper.
Here's what I'm thinking:
To whomever stole our beloved trampoline: I hope you learn to jump really high with it cos you're going to need it for your final jump into the firey depths of hell.
