I need a new phone.
No, I am not being materialistic, I mean I really need a new phone.
We had dinner with some friends last night.
And his kid had a runny nose, like a full on booger nose, and he picked up my phone, and the Dad said, "Don't touch that phone. It's nasty!"
And I laughed really hard because it is the truth.

I will tell you what happened.
Last weekend Don went on a scout camp out.
And since I was home alone I asked a friend if she wanted to go out to dinner.
She said, Yes! Of course.
So we went to Mimi's.
Newsflash: Mimi's is my favorite chain restaurant of all time.
I am never disappointed.

Since I love Mimi's sooooooo much, I of course had to order the 3 course meal for 12.99.
Which included:
-Carrot Bread
-Salad
-Chicken Parmesan with Alfredo pasta and all sorts of delicious things (except for the Basil. I picked that off. I used to love basil. Until I got pregnant. And now I hate basil. I don't know why. But someday I hope to love basil again.)
-Apple Cobbler and ice cream
-And oh about, 3-4 huge glasses of water. Which is what I think really did me in.

Now. I didn't have this problem with Chloe.
I basically could stuff myself with minimal uncomfortableness.
But this time around I tell you, if too much goes down, it all comes up.

So I thoroughly enjoyed my meal and I knew as soon as I finished it, I was in trouble.
I drove my friend home and as soon as I had some privacy I pulled over in the apartment complex parking lot, found a plastic bag, and well....________ _____.
And I felt significantly better.

That is until I realized there was hole in the plastic bag.
And the ________ _____ had now filled up the entire cup holders, and was quickly spilling over into the crevices underneath my seat.
I was horrified.
Also, the _________ ____ had come out my nose which was somewhat unpleasant.
Oh and I had placed my cell phone in the cup holder so my cell phone was well, swimming.

So I went home and did my best to clean it up.
Which by the way, is not so easy to do when a significant amount made it's way underneath the seat and it is basically unreachable.

So then to make a long and disgusting story short (I am so sorry to anyone who read this)
I tried to clean my phone and in so doing it fell apart.
And then I tried to put it back together with super glue.
And I super glued the keys.
Which kind of stunk.
So anyway.
I need a new phone.

And now you know.

Melissa, I would really appreciate it if you didn't try to make your life sound so perfect all the time.

That was not a funny story! I felt so bad for you! Although I had to read it a couple of times to realize waht is was that was going into the bag. The 3-4 glasses of water made me think something else!
