Clumsy

I'm sad today. My beloved blackberry is broken, not really because of my clumsiness, but I'm sad about it. I love that thing, and trying to buy a new one is $$$$$$=expensive. Since I broke it, Jake is making me replace it with my own money. Fair I guess, but I already learned my lesson by having to go a full day with the crappiest phone in the world. The only cool thing about it is Tetris, and that cost me 7 bucks! Work was so miserable yesterday because I was blackberry-less. I usually spend my free time reading blogs and entering sweepstakes at glamour.com, this is to happen no more. That is, until I get my phone back. So I'll now tell the tale of the rest of my muy clumsy........

The other morning I was coming in to use the computer. I sat down on the computer chair (mind it has wheels on it) and because our floor is so sloped in that room, I started to roll away. I was holding on to the little drawer that slides out and has the keyboard on it and this completely slid all the way out throwing the keyboard, the mouse and the drawer onto the floor. The keyboard and drawer broke, but the mouse was all for not getting Reagan in trouble by deciding to stay in tact. Jake was able to fix the drawer, but had to buy a new keyboard on which I'm typing right now (and is quite nice). I still got in trouble.

Then my phone broke. Then last night, since I was sad and crazy for most of the weekend, Jake took me to dinner to make me happy and sane. We wanted to go to Dinosaur BBQ in Harlem because we have heard so much, but it is randomly closed on Mondays. So we went to another place around the corner called Floriditas Tapas. It was pretty rainy yesterday so we both had our own umbrellas. After we ate and saw Piper Jane, we were waiting for the train to come. When it finally came, I decided to strut towards it while twirling my closed umbrella to make Jake laugh. He didn't laugh because the plastic thing broke and sent my umbrella soaring through the air just in time to go between the crack of the platform and the train. I lost my umbrella forever because I'm clumsy. Then I got in a lot of trouble.

So, Jake wants me to start being more serious. I don't know how I'm going to do it, but I have to. This might work if I get an ear piece that has someone telling me serious things to say in it. Maybe I'll try it. But, this is why I'm sad.

I never said I wanted you to be more serious, hahaha. That is what you said. I like the earpiece idea though. Maybe you can save up for it after you get a new phone and umbrella. ;)

I don't think "more serious" should EVER be a goal.
