Rest in peace -- quick edit for brief break-in report \o/ love Maple Ridge

@Pyrian -- to be fair, I did go straight for my bedroom so I could get the wrench from my bedside table. But if you could see my Swiss Army knife, you would understand why I trust that guy.

@catbarf -- that's very true. I was cursing the fact that I didn't go into the parking lot when I heard some noise outside, I might've been able to scare those bastards off if they saw the size of that thing. :sly:

I googled Swiss Army Wrench and found this:

Ah yes, I remember seeing that monster before. My knife's not quite that big, but it's (http://www.swissarmy.com/MultiTools/Pages/Product.aspx?category=everyday&product=53501) fairly well equipped. I couldn't find a picture of anyone holding that thing, sadly, so you can't see how big it is compared to anything else.

My belated condolences also TheNightTerror.

I believe its fairly common for the undesirables of this world to read obituary and funeral notices in order to break in when the house is empty. But that doesn't make it any better.

Sorry also to read that you still have bad sleeping problems. Being perpetually exhausted must be one of the worst things to have to endure. I know when I don't sleep well sometimes how completely ratty I get. My bloke doesn't sleep very much either - its quite painful to see. I do hope something will help one day.

I remember hearing about that obituary/robbery thing too. That's about as low as it gets, but somehow it doesn't surprise me one bit that people would stoop that low.

Yeah, being exhausted constantly isn't pleasant, but it's not like there's a hell of a lot to be done about it. I found a sleep clinic doctor who would actually work with me, and he's out of ideas, so I probably can't go after it that way.

It looks like about the only thing left to try is see if I can find someone who'll help me with working around my needle phobia so I can get some bloodwork done. That should be . . . interesting, assuming I can find a doctor who doesn't run when I say I want to do something about it.
