Add me to yours

(In fact, she says this sentence is brilliant.)Ten points if you can find from whence it came.
“I’m ruthless sometimes, and only later when I hunt for a white queen-sized bed-skirt do I conjure up a fuzzy image of a box destined for Goodwill and taste bitter regret.”
Oh, I’m so popular.
Or not.
Or not.

Mel, I love the scoreboard. I laughed so hard. Nice to know that you and the boy are still alive. Good luck with the iPod insurance.

Thank goodness!!! We had a similar score with a cell phone that fell into a sink full of water. Amazing how these small electronics can recover once they dry out…

I think maybe you ought to have added:
Mom: Surviving…barely!
HA!

I’m missing the joke - is there a previous post?
February 1st, 2008 at 9:25 am
Mel, at least you had insurance for the IPOD. We would have never thought to do that. I’m sure he’ll check his jeans next time before leaving them on the laundry room floor!

I”m glad you got insurance for the iPod! Or else the death of a teenage boy’s iPod would have made me cry.
How long til he gets the replacement? How will he manage until then? Do you have an old Sony Walkman he could borrow? I remember when my Walkman was stolen from my backpack at school, I was crushed, and I didn’t get a new one. Lesson learned, the hard way.

You know, somehow I’m not surprised that it came to this.
February 3rd, 2008 at 1:27 pm
Love your sense of humor! I had a similar incident with a cell phone.
February 3rd, 2008 at 10:29 pm
Oh no! Condolences on the I-Pod.
February 3rd, 2008 at 10:30 pm
^^ At least it died very very clean.
February 4th, 2008 at 12:49 pm
Happy Birthday!
You’re still alive!
February 4th, 2008 at 5:22 pm
Muahah, that’s why I buy CHEAP mp3 players, so I don’t suffer from iPod bereavement when I accidentally leave it at Bally’s or lose it out of my pocket. Woot.com, girl!

speaking as an adult who washed, spun & dried her own cell phone this past summer, i feel son’s & your pain……..

How frustrating! So sorry. Maybe the lesson will be learned!
