rm | the nitty and the gritty

It seems I should be getting paid next week for all of February. Annoying, of course, that my pay is late at all, but liveable, presuming this is true.

The other day, an apartment in my building got broken into. We discovered this, thanks to a police officer rining our bell at around 7:30 to as if we had heard anything. I hadn't been home, or I'd been up in my room when it happened, and Megan hadn't heard anything either. Not that we would, it happened in the basement apartment (the same one that started the fire back when), which really isn't remotely near anything else in the building. It seems their window or patio door was smashed, and that it never had bars because it was in the bac of the building on a private courtyard so the risk was considered minimal.

I'm not terribly freaked out about it, or rather wasn't, until a grammatically abyssmal xerox from the police department was slipped under all the doors here today, saying there's been a rash of these incidents (debateable, it may just be how the sheet is written) and that we should consider the safety precautions advised. At the very least we should probably get another lock for our door. On the plus side, one of us is nearly always home.
