Guns aren't shiny. The sound they make when they're cocked is surprising. I never want to see one again.

I had my purse stolen tonight. They got 28 dollars my house keys and ID with no address in it (the locks are still being changed tomorrow). The whole thing took less than a minute.

I'm fine. A little shocky, but I have a good housemate looking after me. I hate that this happened. The police have been called, and I know I did the right thing by neither fighting nor screaming. I walked away after a gun was pointed at my chest. I know I did the right thing.

But I never want to see a gun again.

Oh my God Fabi! Are you alright? Yes, you did exactly the right thing. No need to risk your life over a little cash and a set of keys. Damn! Did you see the face of the person who did it? Has there been a rash of muggings in your neighborhood? I hope the police catch the fucker. Now I'm pissed on your behalf.

Damn it!

Take care Fabi. Don't let this rattle you.

It's so cold here that I feel like I was robbed by the Michelin man. Large down jackets with hoods cover many sins -- literally in this case.

No, so far as I know there hadn't been a rash of robberies. I hope this isn't the start of one either.

Having the new lock was very helpful psychologically.

Thank you for your good wishes.
