Fucking armed robbery.
Seriously.
My father walked in on armed robbery Thursday, and I find out about it at the tail end of a two hour conversation about porn with my sister. After I tell her goodbye.
Sheeit.
Everything's okay--they didn't take anything from him except his phone. He walked into a jewelry store as it was being robbed, and they took it and put him down on the floor and wrapped up the theft and left. He ended up comforting one of the women there.
AND NO ONE WAS GOING TO TELL ME.
Dinner tonight: Skinless boneless turkey breast slow cooked with Savoy Cabbage, Onion, Green pepper, mushroom. Broth: Soy Milk, Soy Sauce, wine, lemon juice. Spice: brown sugar, five spice, garlic, ginger, black pepper, potassium chloried salt substitute. Whole wheat spaghetti added in last hour.
In past have made this with other greens. Spinach, Kale, BokChoy, Romaine . Pretty much any strong green works, though I'm not sure I'd try it with mustard greens. Still, if it works with Kale.

Holy crap, ita. That's terrifying. I'm glad he's okay.
Jesus. Sounds like your family shares something with mine. They've stopped telling me about dad getting hit on his bike (and I never freaked out at all the others,) I find out about pregnancies and marriages awfully late or only with prodding... I'm glad he's only out a phone.

ita, that would infuriate me. Wow. Of course my dad didn't tell me he'd been diagnosed with prostrate cancer until AFTER THE SURGERY, so yeah. I'm right there with you.
Shit, ita! Glad it turned out ok. Someone should have told you sooner.
Our birthday is in 11 days. How old is your dad going to be?
Goodness, ita. I'm glad your father wasn't hurt.
Good grief, ita. Thank goodness he's all right! And everyone else, of course. Why wouldn't they tell you that? No, never mind, that's the kind of thing my sister would "oh, by the way," in at the end of a conversation about tomatoes or something.
