this morning, i left to go to class...knowing that i wouldn't be home until late, i brought my laptop with me.
my roomate also had $500 cash, in which she decided today was the day to bring it to the bank to deposit.
our apartment was robbed today. they took any cash we had here (which wasn't much), stole my roomate's laptop, and took my digital camera. yeah it ing SUCKS, but we both did things today that we regularly don't do (i.e. deposit cash and lug around a laptop all day).

It's called coincidence. |

chance.
things happen all the time and the frequency of their occurance varies. Everyone performs combinations of odd behavior everyday but it is never noticed or remembered becuase some strange occurance is not tied to it. so it just so happened that the string of odd behavior you performed today aided you in having less stolen from you, which is fortunate. |

wow. i've changed my tune completely now. clearly the karmic god's of fate have chosen today to reveal your destiny and help you out by having people rob your house. i stand completely corrected. |

taken in the same stride (<-- I don't know what that means) it would also mean that others have the same control over you. someone can ruin your future very easily, its all due to chance. |
