Okay, so I haven't posted on here in quite a while because Verizon is d*cking around and their "High Speed" internet(which was never all that fast) has inexplicably slowed to a crawl in the past couple months. Anyways, that's not why I'm here. I just needed to bitch for a minute.
You see, last weekend was my brother's wedding. My brother and his, now, wife don't have much money (or jobs) right now, and everyone knows it. Well, at the wedding, which was in her parents back yard and actually VERY nice, there was a jar for guests to put cards in. Well, at a wedding, people often put money in these cards..... I think you can see where this is going. My mom called my brother today and asked if he had gotten the card that she and my dad had gotten for them, because she just had 'one of those feelings'. My brother said 'no'! The jar was still there with some cards in it, but not as many as he had expected by the number of guests. My parents had put $200 cash and a $300 gift card in theirs, and it was missing. My mom called Target (who the gift card was for) and they said that there was already zero balance on it! I told her to call again and talk to an actual person to see if there's any way they can trace who used the card. I doubt it, but it's worth a shot. I haven't found if the card that I put in there, with $320, made it to my brother or not, but that doesn't really matter! It almost doesn't matter that it's my brother either. I mean, how fucking ghetto can you be!?! It just pisses me off to no end that someone would do this at all! To show up at a wedding with people you know and steal from them!

Wow, Good job on the detective work, Good luck to your Brother and new wife.

I almost had the same thing happen at my wedding 20 years ago, we almost flat out accused the Aunt and uncle from Nebraska for a missing envelope. Then after digging in the trash my now sister in law, found the envelope, un touched, in the trash with all the thrown away wraping. That could have gone ugly either way.

Being from Ca. myself, the cousin and Aunt sound like classic 909ers, and that ain't Porsche talk. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif)
