First of all, the playa has no right to leer at you, since he's the one in the wrong, so kick his ass.
Secondly, he obviously hsn't learned anything, so kick his ass again for good measure.
Thirdly, we don't like him, so kick his ass once more for us.
Fourthly, you seem stressed, so kick his ass again for good measure.
Sorry about the rave.  Do something super sweet for her for her bday instead, see if it brings out any special feelings she's harboring for you.  If nothing else, it'll make her feel really special and cheer her up.

My other plan for her birthday is to take her to a place that does sail plane rides. You get a 30 minute ride over the mountains and desert of So Cal.

I cant kick his ass, he is friends with friends of mine and well, I need to keep things cool.

I am not to stressed right now. weekend has arrived, I am going to see some friends of mine, but not the one I really wanted to see but that will change in a day ro two. I dont know for sure what I want to do for her birthday, It took me a while to figure out what I was originally going to do, I wanted something with some thought put into it. I just need to figure something out and quick. Perhaps I will allow her to choose her day of what she wants to do. I know there is this resturaunt that she wants to go to in hollywood but I dont know the name lol. maybe ill take her out to dinner there or something. Or maybe hire a mariachi band that sings all of Tupac's hit's. ( thats a joke by the way ).

Oh damn...
Any chance at all in it being recovered?  was it insured for this type of thing?

My car is one of those cars that is stolen for its engine alone. If they can recover the car, with the wire harness in place, I can get me a new engine for rather cheap. problem is my $700+ in stereo equipment in my car. God I wish I would have left that kill switch in the car.

Well, I have checked back two more times with the police, to make sure they are on the ball, thats 4 times in a day, I dont think they are happy hehe. Still not reported towed. I will be checking with all 61 towing companies on tuesday when they are open and hunting down my car. If I find it, I will then be notifying the police of where its located and going to get back my car, while getting some form of comensation if possible. If I get my car back with no damage and paying no impound fee, I will be happy enough. The police said that it was most likely stolen since its not been reported by any towing company. I need to find out my rights on that.

still no news on my car, I have now let it go in my mind as a total loss. I am now totally screwed because I wont have the money for a new car.

Also, Sally and I did not hang out on Monday like we had planned. I tried calling her and texting her, both without a reply. I am also letting that go as a total loss. Both things will no longer bother me, I have other things to worry about, like not being homeless,without a car or a way to work, which I would sooner die then be. It wont happen again.

I'm really sorry to hear what's happened EE. Assholes who steal cars don't realise that to some people it is a lifeline. I don't know what to say, I just really sympathise :(

Can you get to work without your car? Can you pick up a really cheap form of transport like a motorbike or moped to tie you over?

Are there any beaters you could fork out a few hundred for, or borrow around to get? 
I agree with redshift on this.  Growing up I've always had people tell me "they're just things, the can be replaced."  Well, no, not always.  And even if they could, you miss the point entirely.  Sure, you just paid cash for that car, but that cash cost you time and energy that you could have spent on something more intrinsically rewarding than that.  You gave a part of yourself, a good chunk most likely, to get and keep that car, and some asshole went out of his way to take it from you.  And it's not just a car.  Thanks to the wonderful powers that be in this country, cars are all but necessary, and can't be done without.  Like redshift said, it's your lifeline.  Without it, you can't get to work.  without work, you live homeless, and the pattern goes on.  Someone took a piece of you and it was a piece that you needed in order to go on living.
I'm not suire what to do to help you, but at the very least you could ask around the boards for sources to get a new car, who knows what you might find.
As for the girl, sorry to hear things are going like that.  Hope today proves to be better than yesterday and the day before.

Cops called me at 6pm and said they found my car, without a stereo though. Hopefully those ungrateful bastards decided to leave my sunglasses and handsfree set and left the glove box alone but I know that is too much to ask. The cops said the car appears drivable, so hopefully the ignition isnt too screwed up. I hope they did not take my rims too, I will be bringing some extra rims and tires just in case when I pick my car up. Its going to cost me about $130 to get my car out of impound too.

First of all, that's great that the car is there and drivable.  I hope the loss and damage isn't too high on it.
Now, that amazes me- some @$$ hole steals your car, strips it clean and now you have to pay to get it back.  Priceless.  I hate the government.

Pheww, thank goodness they found it. Hopefully not much was taken and hopefully it's drivable.

They straight cleaned me out.

Stereo - Gone but wires in good condition
Amp - Gone
Speakers and Box - Gone
Ash tray - gone
Shift Knob - gone
INTAKE! ALL OF IT - GONE, FUNKING GONE. Cant even drive the god damned car

Well, Ill figure things out, still stuck without a car and out $195 so far. More to go to finish fixing my car. I need to clean it too, they wiped the car down with break fluid to remove their prints. HINT: DOnt keep break fluid in your car.

Anyways, I am pretty pissed off. Car starts fine but it appears they did some racing or something in it. I still have nearly a full tank of gas and I am going to find who these people were and do some bad things to them. I already have people in the 'underground' listening for them. I know some shady fools, something should turn up.

anyways. Time to get ready for work to put in another 12+ hour day. At least I have a car, even if its not drivable.

The last few days...

Got my car back, paid $130 to cover San Bernardino PD Fee's, paid $65 to get it towed back to my house, anothr $15 to replace the shift knob they stole, $240 for the intake they stole, $10 to wash it and 4 hours of my time so far, cleaning and repairing my car. Its still not clean inside, I still have a couple of hours of brake fluid cleaning to do.

As for the Sally thing, Friday she wanted to hang out with me last monday, last monday no call and since then, really no contact. I think this may have had something to do with it...

" Well, I am going to be taking a break from everyone apparently. The last week just has me emotionally drained. I will try to hit jazz sometime this weekend, if at all possible, hopefully We can hang out but that appears to be as likely as my car coming back to me in 1 peice. I hope everything goes well in the future for you. If you need absolutly anything, call me and I will do what I can.

I need to figure out stuff, how I am going to get my life back together again after this new setback. I just dont want to show to jazz and bum people out. I really cant deal with this stress at this time. The last thing I need to do is be stuck in this house but no other choice. Its not work and sleep. Hopefully I can figure something out soon.

Take care of yourself. I consider you one of my close friends and I have really missed kicking it with you. I hope things get better for you asap.

take care. "

I sent her that Email. Now, I relise that it does sound mean, it was not intended to. I know the sentence ' hopefully We can hang out but that appears to be as likely as my car coming back to me in 1 peice' sounds meaner then it should have, I should have put a smile or something behind it but hindsight is 20/20.

anyways, thats about it. not much more went on besides nearly kicking the butt of a co-worker a couple days ago but we talked that out and all is good.

now to see if $40 can last me until Tuesday morning.

Dude, I don't think reworkding or adding a smiley to that email would have helped.  You basically gave her the "let's be friends" speech, which never goes over well, regardless.
Don't get me wrong, I know that you're in a tough postion right now, and your tired and frustrated, but I don't think that email was the right thing to do.  That's the mean opinion, i hope you don't take that too much to heart, cuz IMHO it's just one mistake in a line of actions that show you to be a well thought, hard working excellent person.
Of course, how you handle it is you business, that's just my opinion. 
Re: the car, I don't know much about them, so don't know how to help you.  At least you have it and it's on its way to getting back to running condition again.

I sent this Email lastnight but she has not been online yet today. She is sick at the moment.

" I made a major mistake Sally. I think you may have took the email below the wrong way because of my mistake. You see, the part , "hopefully We can hang out but that appears to be as likely as my car coming back tome in 1 peice." was meant as a joke, not to be taken as a mean comment in any way. I just picked a poor choice of words and forgetting that 'tone' cannot be portrayed well through text.

Being stressed about the whole car thing, being really stressed at work because of constant nagging about our performance, not seeing ANYONE in a while now had me in a really weird place. I can understand fully if you are angry with me about the email and all I can really say is, I goofed. For that I am sorry, it was never my intent to insult you. Again, I am sorry. I feel horrible. I really hope you are not angry with me about that. As you can read in the rest of the message, I was not upset with you.

Well, I hope you take my suggestion on LJ and try some Orange Sherbet for your throat, wont help with the cough but it will help with the pain. Have you tried eatting straight honey for the cough? I have also found that helps quite a bit.

I will be a willing subject to any wraith you feel must be thrown at me, I deserve it.

take care.

Jason "

Well, off to do laundery, ponder what I am going to do today and really ponder if I am going to drive out to Sally's house and deliver her some Orange Sherbet ice cream for her throat just because it would be the nice thing to do.
