Did you close your car windows?  email this discussion to a friend?

I forgot to close a window of my car.
It was wide open because before parking I opened it wide and asked whether a guy was moving his car out of a space.
27 hours later, I went back to my car and saw the seats were in weird positions. There was a mess of my stuff randomly scattered inside the car.
I was like oh s--- someone stole my stuff.
Luckily the only thing missing was my yoga mat. My plate registration or insurance card was not interested. I am happy that the other day I had taken my CD book back home and forgot to bring it back to the car. Otherwise, my favorite CDs would have been gone too. Well, or not since a Diana Krall CD with the original CD case was in the car.
Cellphone chargers, maps, an umbrella, and an not-so-cheap Italian sweater were not interested either.
I was lucky that the weather has been good. With a window wide open, rain or anyone can get in very easily.

wow!did you report it to the police?should've done that before you left the parking lot.now,it might be too late.
i always put my windows up before i leave my car at all and plus lock the doors.i have a power window on my car and than power door locks so it'd be hard to steal anything.
maybe this might be a lessoned learned experience for ya.
roll them windows up!

No... I did not call the police. It was my fault. Only one thing was taken. I was wiped out by the 6-hour milonga.
Anyway, I will be very very careful from now on.

I always close the windows on my car otherwise stay cats will get in there and use it as their own personal bathroom also if your windows are down you let bees, flies and mosquitos into the car so mine are always up.

Talking about stray cats, I almost never see a homeless cat in NYC. It's a very pet-friendly place.

I tend to be pretty paranoid about making sure that my windows are up and that my doors are locked when I leave my car. Of course, we park about a block away from our apartment, and often just leave the car sitting there for a full week before we drive it anywhere.

A friend of mine who lives in this area says that the best policy with cars around here is to never leave anything in your car that you can't live without. I think it's a good policy, and I only keep things like an ice scraper and an umbrella in my car, aside from things like the insurance card and registration.

Exactly. I almost decided to leave my backpack in the car. I am happy that important stuff was with me all the time.
