Why????

It has certainly been a very, um, eventful week. First off, my car got stolen on Monday night. Yeah. My little fusia '95 Nissan 200SX is gone. Let's have a moment of silence for Big Momma.

...

Who steels a 12 year old car? That is pink? and has over 140K miles on it? The windshield wipers don't work and the check engine light has been on for about 6 months. Honestly. It's only worth like $1,500. I mean, don't get me wrong. I love that car. She was my car! She was fully paid for (thank you, daddy!), which was beautiful and I'd been driving her since December 5, 2003. Big Momma was our only car for a long time after we got married. I remember the day that Vinnie called me (at like 5:30 a.m.) so that he and I could share the moment that the spedometer went from 99,999 to 100,000. I loved that car, and I'm sad that she's gone.

The cop who came out to take a statement from me filled me with all sorts of false hope too. He said that 9 times out of 10 the car is recovered within 24-48 hours. I knew that she wasn't going to be recovered though. From the very start I figured that she was stolen to drive to Mexico, or that she'd be taken apart. The general consensus is that she's probably already been dismantled and sold off in pieces.
