Have you seen my car?

I knew I was taking a chance when we bought a silver 2000 Dodge Grand Caravan. Let's face it, it has real sex appeal and with automatic & tinted windows, air conditioning and 3 car seats it screams "Bling! Bling!" So it should have been no surprise to me when my swanky little minivan was stolen on Tuesday. Yes, it was parked in a parking lot, yes, I locked the doors, yes, the windows were rolled up, and yes I took the "Steal me!" sign out of the window. Luckily I have comprehensive auto insurance coverage with rental and the police already took a report, so now I just sit and wait. I hate waiting.
If you happen to see my pimp mobile, it has a Christian fish by the Minnesota plates: TPD 715.

who steals a mini van? I guess gangsters have a lot of friends they want to haul around, plus the extra room is good for hauling stolen goods and weapons... I am so sad for you. And yes I am crazy, but sometimes i think when I've got lots of my favorite cd's in the car and my ipod that if my car were to be stolen I would be more upset about the music..insurance can't compensate me for all the time I took to collect that music. Also, my really cute pink stripper glasses (thats what Tac calls them)I would miss those too.
So I'm sorry for the loss of your pimped out mini van, and all the stuff that was inside too :)

That is just awful. I have nightmares about walking out and not finding my car. What a huge bummer and I hate waiting too. So sorry!! Thank goodness for insurance!

I wish they would take my car...and never return it...Only if it meant I got a new one. Hopefully you are compensated well and that you didn't loose many other things as well. That's usually worse than loosing the actual car! I guess you'll have to get another lil' fish!

What's up with crooks? Why can't they make an honest living like the rest of us?

Have you found it yet? What are you driving in the meantime? Oh, the adventures! They never stop for the Rawhouser clan. Hope you can get a nice minivan in exchange. I remember that smooth ride on the way to Visiting Teaching with you. Maybe check your VT partner... maybe she, too had a secret crush.
