About six or so months ago, my laptop was stolen from my home. I think it was the most idiotic robbery in history. The culprit stole the powercord from my printer (which he left behind) and left behind the powercord from my laptop (which he stole). Not only that, but he stole the charger for my ipod and left my ipod lying right there on my desk. But the most stupid action belongs to me. In a moment of shear genius, I left ALL the doors unlocked when I left the house. Of course, I wasn't gone for more than fifteen minutes. We live in such a nice neighborhood. I just never thought it would happen to me. I guess that's what all victims think, huh?
I've had to do a lot of improvising since then. I've discovered that I can blog on my Wii and my PS3, though I can only type so many characters per entry on my PS3. Both are truly crappy when it comes to facebook, though the Wii is the better of the two there. Because of the type of platform they are, they do not support a lot of content.

Excitement and Frustration
I'm blogging from my PS3 today, so I don't know if I'll be able to get this to work right.
So, big news! I found the half brothers of my three kids on facebook. My ex husband had two sons from a previous marriage before I met him. I never got to meet these boys, and neither have my kids. I started searching for them when I left my ex, but their mother wouldn't respond to any of my attempts. I don't know if it's because she never got my letters or if there were other reasons. For all I know, she told her sons that their father was dead, so of course it would be hard to explain to them how they ended up with half-siblings.
Anyway, I recently started up the search again. I knew their first names and their mother's maiden name. Turns out that facebook is a handy little search tool when you're looking for people. There they were in my hometown and just a message away. I wrote "Drew" yesterday and can barely contain my excitement while waiting for a response.
