It's all gone
Jan. 8th, 2006 09:25 pmAll my 12th Night stuff was stolen out of my car sometime this morning. Everything. All my clothes are gone, my chemise, farthingale, corset, white dress and over robe. After all that work. And my Bill Dawson Laurel. But the real devestaing blow is the loss of my bauble, the one Donna and Andrew gave me at thier wedding. I cannot express the grief I feel at the loss of that gift.
Of course all my 12th Night gifts were stolen as well. I'm sorry folk, but I thank you all for your kindness and generosity.
Hell I even lost a bunch of shoes, including my SCA elkskin shoes (and they were pretty worn out).
This happened in front of Marguerite's house. I made it easy for the thiefs, because in my sleepy post-12th-Night-up-way-past-my-bedtime stuper I had left my back window open. But I was so tired I'd barely gotten to M's place safely, and I was just too tired to even think of bringy anything but my purse and change-of-clothes inside.
Anyway, when I saw what had happened M's husband Brian helped my file a police report. Of course, they tell you that it's for insurance purposes only and that they won't investigate such things. I was so distraught that I decided I was not safe behind the wheel of a car, so (to make a long story short), maestrateresa and Bubbles and Marguerite spent the with me, and we caravaned my car home. We did have to go out to the barn to get Brandee out, so I got some Brandee therapy time and Bubbles got to see what horses look like. Other than that we ate out at Hobees and an Indian restraunt and I made them watch a movie I like (Princess Caraboo). And Bubbles got a lot of attention.
M and MT were (and continue to be) very kind. M, being a civil engineer who works for VTA knew some dumpster's to check out (in case the costumes were dumped), and she'll check out the SJ flea market. I don't have any real hope of getting my bauble and anything else back, but at least we will have tried.
Guess I'll be forced to make that new corset I've been talking about now. I'm not being trite, I just don't know what else to do. And if I dwell over my loss I'll just start sobbing again.
