CD Gnomes!
May. 29th, 2006 05:15 pmOn Sunday, someone with a great deal of consideration for their fellow man smashed the passenger side window of ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
midnightfae's car in an attempt to get the stereo. Her stereo, being an ornery piece of antiquated equipment, did not budge more than an inch or two. Despite the cost of replacing the window, this failure of basic mission parameters amused both midnightfae and I.
Until today.
Today we realized that the thief did manage to swipe not onlymidnightfae's CDs, but also my own (I had put my CD binder in her car for additional music choices).
It's just stuff, but it's a bit disconcerting. I have most of my music backed up just in case, but my David Sedaris CD and all of my Monty Python albums were not ripped for posterity. Plus, one of my Stuart Davis albums was signed and I'll never see him perform live again since he never travels this way.
I feel worse formidnightfae, however, as she didn't have any backups made, and she had a nearly complete set of Tori Amos CDs.
We'll be fine. I'm going to reburn my CDs and make my girl some wicked awesome mixes to try to cope for the loss of tunes. I'll have to rebuy the Python and Sedaris, but hey... they're worth the dough.
