I’m sorry fanfan.
Our situation was weird, but not harmful.
Yours was a hard situation.
I’ve been the victim of personal crimes before; and the only bright side is that it helps you formulate a plan as to what to do to prevent that situation (if/when possible) from happening again.
Yup. That, and to leave a 'nice' note in my purse, for the next guy.
Dear Mugger,
Congratulations!
You are now the proud owner of a $25 purse, including the bonus prizes of a comb, some lipstick, and a pack of smokes.
Good luck in life, loser.
