My house got broken into tonight....

The harsh reality is that burglars will generally go after the easiest target. By increasing the security of your home relative to that of your neighbors, you become less of a target. Get better locks, lock all your windows, put in an alarm system, maintain bright outdoor lighting around your house, lock up your valuables, etc.

On the bright side of things, you should be glad they didn't take your laptop/PC. Think of how much downtime you would have it that was stolen. In any case, money and material things are replaceable. Be happy that you still have what's important, the people around you.

I had some fuckers crawl into our house while we were sleeping and steal our cell phones. I find it hard to believe that someone can come in while I was sleeping.
