Area woman [livejournal.com profile] tofty discovered upon waking that she was the victim of Mysterious Ruffians, who broke into her home during the night and rifled a paper diorama set up on the dining room table, stealing a "pillow" and scattering books, candles, and an unclothed, hairless clay figurine over the floor in decidedly profligate fashion.

A distraught Ms. [livejournal.com profile] tofty said, "It was such a nice pillow, too -- all stuffed with cotton-balls, and just the right size."

Police were called in, but could find evidence of neither a break-in to the house nor of the Mysterious Ruffians. Early reports suggest that the pillow, considering its low resale value, has been stripped for parts and will never be recovered. And it is unlikely, even given Ms. [livejournal.com profile] tofty's reported list of suspects and a generous posted reward of Whiskas cat treats (crunchy on the outside! soft on the inside!), that the Mysterious Ruffians will ever be arrested and brought to justice.

The naked figure did survive, with a scratch to his nose which I think isn't very noticable after a little scraping. (It is a very big nose and can withstand judicious whittling.)

Ahhh, what a great dream! I would totally have tackled that project too, if it hadn't been for that pesky family. Although I will say that I think the world needs more boys in Norfolk suits, and possibly knee socks and straw boaters as well. I know that this attire would get any boy in America beat up the second he stepped out into public, but I wish that weren't the case.

Anyway, the house is fab, and we should definitely visit when I am next in San Jose!
