why today????

[helena.gcd]

Hi girls!!!!

i need to scream!!!!!!

i can't believe my bad luck. Let me explain, because i need to tell somebody...

As some of you may know, today is Carnaval. A lot of people is in costumes, having fun tonight. I had planned everything for today. I was going out dressed for first time with some of my real life friends. My plan was simply going out dressed and then, depending of the mood, tell them the whole truth.

It was a big step for me. I have been out before a few times, but not in my city and not with anybody who knows my male-self.

So i met one of my friends this afternoon and as we were buying some beers to watch a football match (soccer, for my US friends) on TV i tell him that i was going out tonight in a costume. He was very surprised (we have never been in costumes for Carnaval) but he was cool with it. That simple step was very difficult for me, but i did it and i was really waiting for the night to come. It was going to be a great night.

We were watching the football game and 15 minutes before my schedule for going home and get changed i receive a call from my mum. I was having lunch with them so i new that something wasn't OK. She told me that they have been out this evening and that when they arrived home they found that they have been robbed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Money, jewels, all gone Luckily they are OK, there wasn't anybody in the house when they arrive, so they are safe.

So i have spend all night with them, with the police and getting a new lock for the door.
They are now sleeping at my house, as theirs is everything up side down.

All the plans that i had for tonight are lost. And the most probable thing is that those f**king ba***rds will never be caught and they are now having a great night spending my parents money.

This could have happened any day, we are not safe. But, Why today? Don't get me wrong, I care much more about my parents than for me not going out dressed, the pink fog hasn't take all my common sense. I just mean that it is very bad luck that this happens today.

I could be now having a great night with my friends, but instead i'm at home, feeling unsafe and with my parents very sad. they are now in bed and i hope that they can sleep a bit.

I definitely cant't sleep. I can't believe my bad luck and I need to tell someone .

thanks for reading.

P.S: as i have said, they are OK, just a bit nervous, so don't worry. And the money and the jewels isn't lots of money, about $10.000 in total. Insurance will take care of it.

Oh Helena, I'm so sorry for you and your parents.

I've been robbed before and it is so frustrating. Even though insurance will cover the money loss, there is still the need to spend time replacing documents or items that one doesn't realize are missing until the next time they're needed. And, the thought that someone thinks they have the right to take whatever they please is irritating.

Still, I'm glad that no one was harmed.

Awww. I was amazed when my in-laws lived in Rota how often they were robbed!! Its like an epidemic! We used to visit them and the robbers would walk right in front of the house. And the police wouldn't do anything!!

Perhaps you should be more concerned with your parent's misfortune and less with your 'bad luck'.

i agreee that it is very frustrating. The worst it is not the monetary lost, it is the feeling that you are not safe even in your own home.

Karren don't get the wrong idea about Spain. Actually my parents are the first people i know that have been robbed at home.... Unfortunately police can't do much this time. No fingerprints any where, the neibourghs didn't see anybody..... so the only thing is waiting till they try to sell any of the jewells which has inscriptions on it...

Perhaps you should be more concerned with your parent's misfortune and less with your 'bad luck'.

Don't get me wrong Ineke. The most i care is about them. I know which things are important in life. I can dress any time i want so it isn't a big problem for me, but as this is a CD forum I thought that i should write it from de CD point of view. To just talk about the robbery i have my friends and family

It might have been fate. If your parents hadn't been robbed, it might have been the night you got hit by a car downtown. You will get another chance one day.

actually i'm glad that it only was monetary loss. I'm glad that my parents didn't arrive earlier to find the robbers at home. Then, who knows what could had happened.....

So sorry to hear what happened to your parents and how it blew your plans. Lousy!

I'm so glad that everyone is alive and O.K.

Thanks. The most important thing is that they are safe. This morning they woke up in not a very bad mood. So hopefully in a few days they can forget about this.



Thank you girls for caring.
