Are You Ready For a Good Laugh?


Last night I got home from Young Women and I was doing the potty dance.  Many of you know how after you have had a few babies when you have to go, you better go now!  Anyway, I ran into the bathroom and noticed that someone (it's actually always Haven) had not flushed so there was some "yellow" and toilet paper in the toilet.  With no time to flush, I pulled down my shorts as I spun around to sit on the pot and started to go (you know that move).  At that very instant I realized that I had heard something fall out of my pocket and about a half a second later it clicked that it was my iPhone!  I looked frantically around my feet hoping to find it on the bathroom floor, but with no avail.  Sure enough, my phone was in the pot on top of Haven yellow, and now under MY yellow!  I was freaking out as I grabbed the phone and gave it a quick rinse under running water.  By this time all of my kids are in the bathroom with me asking why I had dropped my phone in the toilet, as if I had done it on purpose.  Anyway, one lysol wipe later, thanks to a touch screen (very few buttons) and my cat-like reflexes, my phone is alive an kicking.  It actually never even "lost consciousness."  Consider this experience just one more reason why you should own and iPhone!

wow...the things we endure to save our phones!! I've killed 3 phones in the pedicure bowl...and with all the money I lost re buying phones, I'm sure it wouldn't even add up to half the amount of an iphone!

That is so funny. Addie threw my video camera in the toliet a few weeks ago. I grabbed it out quickly but it didn't not survive.
