The cretin stole candy from my baby

Iain’s truck was broken into last weekend. The lowlife or -lifes responsible found fit to steal:

a roll of pennies
a roll of toilet paper
a roll of Pez.

That Pez was part of Owen’s reward for a successful week of potty training. He diligently answered nature’s call from his thronely repose many, many times a day. He carefully placed each sticker in its own grid-like box on the chart I made him by hand. He earned that candy, man.

And some dumb cluck mucked it up. It’s not a great loss, I know. But I wish I knew what kind of dunderhead breaks into a parked vehicle in the dead of night to steal toilet paper, pennies, and a kid’s candy. He must be pretty hard up.

ARGH!

Takes “stealing candy from a baby” to a WHOLE NEW LEVEL!

Hope the truck wasn’t destroyed in the process.

What did you tell Owen?? How do you explain that? Or do you just buy new Pez?

People are weird. However, I’ve been known to steal PEZ from my own kids so I shouldn’t talk…KWIM?

hopefully no damage to the truck.

With friendship,

Wow, I am not sure who I feel sorrier for. Owen, or the dude.

Also: two things. I am getting an error when I post comments, and your RSS feed is not coming in properly. Or maybe I am just crazy.

thanks for the head’s up, aimee — try this: http://supamb.com/supafine/feed/

The truck is fine. Owen is OK — he doesn’t know what he’s missing, yet. Hopefully that shoe doesn’t drop.
