Steph and Jeff.
(Yes, we rhyme. I think my parents were high when they named us.)
Uh, people don't go around picking friends for their looks. I hope.
I'm only friends with all of you because of your looks. Isn't that how the Internet works?
HAVE I BEEN DOING IT WRONG? OH GOD.
Fucking hell. My friend C was just robbed at gunpoint in broad daylight outside a theatre in Hollywood. She's okay, but she's really shaken up and has lost both her iPhone and her iPad, neither of which she can afford to replace. I am shaking with fury and worry and helplessness.
Oh crap, Pix, that's awful.
Oh my god, that's so scary. I'm glad she's all right.
Oh no, Pix! That is so scary.
Apparently she was sitting in her car outside the theatre waiting for a meeting and a guy walked up, stuck a gun through her window, and demanded her phone and iPad. She apparently didn't realize it was a gun initially and grabbed at it thinking he was soliciting her. Oh God she could have been killed so easily.
She doesn't know any of our numbers by heart except, thankfully, ND's because she worked with him for years before smartphones. She went into the theatre and borrowed someone's phone to call him. He told me and helped set up a full wipe on the devices through iCloud, I called our other best friend B who lives in Hollywood, and she drove over to the theatre and found C talking with the police. Once she's done we are all going to meet up so she isn't alone.
Oh jeez, poor C! I'm so glad you guys can be there for her.
Pix, how awful! I'm so glad C wasn't hurt.
Yikes--and yay for ND's tech skills!
Pix - that is awful. I'm glad that C is okay and that ND was able to wipe the devices.
