So I got two real surprises today on my birthday. First, it snowed last night, for real, in Seattle - enough to cover the ground with an inch or so, and it stayed cold enough to last into midday. And I've always loved snowy nights, with the way there's so much more ambient light in the city because of the snow reflecting the streetlights.
The second, and more substantial, surprise was a phone call from the Redmond Police. It seems they caught some woman trying to cash one of my stolen checks using a fake ID. They need me to go in next week and verify the checks are mine so they can prosecute. I never thought I'd hear anything more about the burglary, it's nice to see someone getting in trouble for it, even if I won't get my stuff back as a result.
