Kinda like comfort food.
I dropped my wife and young daughter off at the in-laws' house on Wednesday of this week because she had a doctor's appointment in her hometown. This gave me the rest of the week at home alone. So last night I made plans with a few mates to go out Rock Climbing at a local indoor gym.
The gym is on an island halfway across the bridge between 2 provinces (in Canada) and is somewhat tucked away. I parked my Jeep in one of the few available spaces and we went inside for some climbing and general messing about.
The place was packed, with ladies and gents of all shapes and sizes. It's a fairly large gym with about 6 different sections to climb in, all with varying degrees of difficulty in climbing. We spent about an hour and a half climbing and generally just enjoying ourselves.
Anyways, after the hour and a half my mates and I decided it was time to leave. Upon exiting the establishment I noticed glass on the ground beside my Jeep. Funny thinks I, that wasn't there when I... shit, the window! Shit, all my and one of my mates' stuff.
They had taken my bag with my phone, new sunglasses, change of clothes, shoes, bodywash, anti-perspirant, water, building pass (national defense) and wallet which had everything (driver's license, military id, credit cards, bank cards, health cards, daughter's stuff, etc) as well as my mate's bag with his wallet, 400$ cash, and his apartment keys.
I borrowed my mate's phone to call the police and file the report, then the military police to report the stolen access pass, etc. We drove around looking for anyone walking with the bags but no luck, based on the credit card charges made, they were long gone.
I decided to turn in for the night. I drove all the way back to the in-laws', with a garbage bag taped over the rear side window, in order to see my wife as I didn't have a phone or anything at home and couldn't really get in to work the next morning without any id anyway.
Upon arriving, all was suddenly better. As previously mentioned, I have a young daughter. 3 months old to be precise. And what happens to women after giving birth? In particular, my wife, 3 months after the birth...

Yes, they are currently 32GG.

I slept well last night with those comfy pillows. :)
