I recieved a phone call at work today from my wife. Everything was okay, but someone had tried to break into our apartment. “Luckily”, she heard the commotion and went to check it out, which caused the breaker-and-enterer to flee once he realized that the apartment was in fact occupied. Nothing was taken, we are both fine, and the only thing broken was the lock on the door (which was quickly replaced with a stronger one by our wonderful landlord). Read the first-hand account.

If anyone lives in the WPI area, I highly suggest being cautious and ensuring that your doors are properly secured. If anyone is planning on living in the WPI area, I highly recommend Broggi Realty as a landlord. Whenever we’ve had a problem (key locked inside apartment, heat broken, hot water broken, dryer broken, door broken), the landlord has been right on top of things.

In other news, we went to the first part of our Costa Rica team retreat today. This weekend, we will be team-building in preparation for our trip.
