ripoff

I discovered tonight that about 600 copies of my solo CD had been stolen. Don't know when.

This isn't as big a shock as it might be. They were all in three cardboard boxes in an unsecured storage area outside my apartment. The reason they were there is that I'd decided it would be okay if someone took them. I stopped thinking a while ago that I would ever sell them.

Still, theft makes me feel bad in my stomach. They also took some empty suitcases, so I guess I'm packing light for the Vermillion Lies tour.

On the bright side: Assuming those boxes end up in the dumpster somewhere, that turns the remaining 400 CDs into incredibly valuable collector's items.

Jesus. Bastards. Well, on the up side: maybe the crooks, desperate to recoup some money from their hard work thieving, will go out and sell your CDs to a bunch of people.

I think I have some spare suitcase things you can have, if Portland's not entirely too late.

Wow. I wonder if the crooks even knew what they were stealing. Like, did they not notice that the boxes were full of the same cd? Or did they think they hit some sort of cd jackpot, and that they were going to hit up every record store in town selling them back for cash and/or credit?

Sorry about being a victim of theft. It really is the sickest feeling.
