Dear jerk who stole my bike-

You were pretty brazen to steel a bike in broad daylight on busy street in front of a business! Yeah, my insurance will cover a new bike, but whoever you are, it's pretty low. Yeah, I know it was my fault to leave a road bike there for 10 minutes, and I should have brought it into the See's Candy store with me even though it had big windows and I checked on it once. Once I get over being mad at myself for being complacent and at you for stealing my bike, I might get excited about buying a new bike- but I'm not there yet.

Ms. Speedwell, I'm going to miss you.

Dear Azfiddle - I'm so sorry. Let yourself off the hook. Hopefully this perspective might help. Spoiler: his bike wasn't stolen. But still - being too careful can significantly interfere with you quality of life.

And also - make sure to call local shops, police, pawn shops, check craigs, etc. You know the drill.

Dear Bike Thieves - You suck. So much.

Ugh, azfiddle. That stinks. I'm so sorry that happened to you.

I'm sorry, Azfiddle. I've been a victim too. It's such a violation. Hugs.
