I hope you all got what you wanted for Christmas this year.\u00a0 <removing snarky comment><\/p>\n
Last year Dan bought me a pink Motorola blue tooth from the girls for Christmas.\u00a0 In this last year that poor thing has survived so much.
\nA few months ago I pulled the clothes out of the dryer and the damn thing fell out on the floor.\u00a0 “How the hell?” I wondered how it got in there and then I remembered I put it in my back pocket after the battery died.\u00a0 I was all bummed out because I actually liked it. It wasn’t one of those ones that you had to stick in your ear which just gives me the creeps.
\nIt was suggested that I should charge it and see if it still worked.
\nLow and behold after a good charging it worked!\u00a0 I swore I would NEVER put it in my pocket ever again.\u00a0 2 cell phones and countless tubes of lipstick, lip gloss, and chapstick have been destroyed in the washer and dryer.\u00a0 I also have the cleanest driver license, atm card and lighters in California.<\/p>\n
The other day I was flip flopping the laundry and at the bottom, there it was…my pink bluetooth.\u00a0 “DAMN IT!” there is no way that poor thing could survive a second washing.\u00a0\u00a0 I remembered last time I found it in the dryer and so with a ‘what the hell…it worked before…what can it hurt?’, I tossed my blue tooth into the dryer with the wet clothes.\u00a0\u00a0 After the 40 minutes, I took it out with the clothes and plugged it in to charge.
\nYeah…IT WORKED!<\/p>\n
Now I promise to NEVER wash it again, because my odds of it working again after 3 washings is just tempting fate.\u00a0 I’m telling the story of the most awesome bluetooth to my hair stylist and as I am getting up from the chair, it falls and hits the floor…hard.\u00a0 It broke.<\/p>\n
Distraught I go looking for a replacement at Fryes Electronics and Best Buy.\u00a0 Because it’s an ‘older model’ they don’t have it. I found a replacement on Overstock dot com.\u00a0\u00a0 The thing is…it’s red. It’s not pink.\u00a0 AND, I have never had any luck with the ‘replacement’ things in my life.\u00a0 Examples, My Motorola Razor phone. The first one had the best reception and the battery lasted forever.\u00a0 I replaced it after some fucktard stole it when we went to the coast. The replacement…sucked.\u00a0 My Samsung phone that vibrated into a sink full of water was the best phone! (before the swim) and the replacement has NO reception.\u00a0 Sucks.
\nI’m hoping the new bluetooth will prove to be different.<\/p>\n
That is the Christmas present I bought for myself.<\/p>\n
Here’s to next year…getting what I want and accepting the things I didn’t want but were handed to me anyway.\u00a0\u00a0 To allowing replacements into my life and not questioning them.\u00a0 Maybe replacements is exactly what I need.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
