As if I needed another thing to deal with. My car was broken into. There wasn't much there for them to take, and they didn't break a window, but it still means dealing with the police and figuring out whether my auto insurance handles the stolen copies of Spinning Reels and the Homespun Ceilidh Band demo CD (I had some of each in the car in case I run into somebody who needs a demo or wants to buy an album while I'm out. I also usually carry a portable CD player with headphones and an opened copy of the CD but I have to check to see whether I'd put that back in the house or not.

I called the police. They wanted a detailed list of what was taken, and I said I hadn't looked very far because I didn't want to mess up fingerprints. They said they don't take fingerprints from cars unless there's a murder or something else big like that. For simple theft-from-auto they can take the report over the phone. Funny how when my camera bag was stolen, the police gave me a raft of shit for not contacting them quickly enough to preserve any evidence!
