If you remember several months ago I posted a blog about the government's conspiracy to slowly but surely drive me crazy. Well, I had thought maybe the plan stopped, but apparently they were just lulling me into complacency before kicking back into high gear.
Here is my most recent evidence:
1) I came out of my house today to find my car missing. Coincidentally, all of my neighbor's cars were also missing and we noticed that the street had been stripped. What we discovered is that the city decided to repave our street (starting with stripping it today) with no notice...not even a sign hung. So, this morning all of our cars were towed without our knowledge.
Thankfully, before calling the police we noticed that our cars were lined up on the street across the park from us.
They towed our cars one street over; cause they wanted to.
2) As you know, my hard drive crashed last Tuesday. I immediately ordered a new one that was supposed to arrive on Thursday. When it came I discovered it was the wrong part so I had to call Dell and order a new one. The correct part was supposed to arrive on Friday.
I went on line (on another borrowed computer) today to check the status of my hard drive and DHL informed me that the package had been delivered. After some more phone calls it was discovered that the DHL driver left the package on my front door.
I asked the DHL representative if that was standard practice for them and she informed me that the driver is allowed to leave a package at someone's door if they deem it safe.
So, apparently the DHL driver that delivered my package is the biggest idiot to ever walk this earth. I am not sure what about my narrow street full of trash, abandoned houses, and drug dealers on the corner made him feel safe, but he apparently saw no problems with leaving my package on my door (and incidentally, I don't even have a screen door for him to close the package in with...he might as well have just left it in the middle of the street!).
Needless to say, my package was stolen and I had to file a claim with Dell and with DHL. They are hoping that my new package (that I am having delivered to the Hinsons house cause they DO have a screen door and are home more than I am) will be here by Thursday or Friday...meaning that I will have 7 days of work to make up with AIM.
Oh, and incidentally..the only reason I wasn't here yesterday when the package was delivered was because I had to go to my friend Elizabeth's house to borrow her computer so I could get my Kids Club stuff ready for tonight.
I'm actually taking this all pretty well...other than still being in some pretty serious shock that ANYONE would deem my street safe enough to leave a packing sitting on my front step.
I'm putting together quite a bit of evidence toward my conspiracy theory...I think I'll have enough to take to the newspapers soon...

I love how you update your blog way more than most people (ie: us!) but your stories often make me remember how amazing our God is. I also love the stories that make me laugh-- this one had Austin and I cracking up (but we are sorry for your computer troubles!)
