Walked outside this morning. Opened the passenger door to car. Noticed the glove compartment stuff was all over the front seat. Yelled at the wife she needed to come put it back in. Wife said she didn't get anything out of the glove compartment. Noticed my upper glove compartment was open. Saw that my GPS and MP3 player are gone. Walked around to driver side. Middle window broken out. FUCKING AWESOME WAY TO BEGIN A MOTHERFUCKING DAY.

So far what I've noticed missing -
$120 Mp3 player
$150 GPS (gift from work)
Deductible = $500 (so goodbye stuff)

Luckily the damage only appears to be to the window so my deductible will not come into effect.

Waiting for police to get here atm to file a report.

Wondering if I should go to the local pawn shops and look for my crap.

Feel like if I'd caught the guy I would've broken his legs.. and arms.

      I know you're being sarcastic, but what you said it actually right. Why make it more enticing for someone to break in? You should take all that shit out of your car and then you probably wouldn't have it broken in to.
