happy mutherfucking x-mas

not less than 20 minutes a go a serious fucking grinch got up on our front porch and stole -- yes, that's right, stole -- a lighted garland that was draped over our front door and an extension cord.  anna first heard the asshole, looked out the window, startled the fucker who did a cartoon double-take, as he snatched our christmas decorations and extension cord and made a b-line down the street.  anna opens the door and yells, i'm calling the cops!  to which she promptly did.  the perp is on foot and probably still in the neighborhood.  may the ghosts of christmas past, present and future haunt this twerp till the end of his days.

post-script

we recovered our garland and extension cord.  the goofball dropped them on our lawn as he high-tailed out when anna scared him in mid-theft.  after the anger comes the comedy.  but still one must wonder what the hell is going on in the idiot's head as he attempted to baldly steal our shit from our front porch as our house lights are blazing and the neighbors are to-ing and fro-ing.  it is not the loss of material things i care about.  i care about the loss of feeling safe in our home.  here the art of kindness married to an action of unfucking the world and never getting nearer to an end.
