An even better reason to upgrade to an iPhone
While Lily may have scratched my iPod Touch screen, my wife was able to do one better. Last night as we were going to bed, my wife tried to save me a trip downstairs and bring my iPod Touch upstairs to place at my bedside (I use it as a backup alarm, and it keeps me occupied if I’m walking Lily around the house at night).
Unfortunately, as my wife was heading up the stairs, my iPod decided to slip out of its case and head down the stairs. It went smack and crack the touch screen pretty badly. My wife says “…and I want you to know I’m getting you a new iPod Touch,” then showed me the damage. A large crack down the center of the screen.
Strangely enough it still works!
My wife is leaning toward buying another iPod Touch instead of an iPhone (the AT&T network is not great, and it’s really bad where we’ll be living in Ohio). but one can dream…
It’s true, my secret is out: the baby occasionally damages things in her joyful and creative play, but her mama…is simply a klutz, especially when she’s tired. Actually, the iPod slipped out of its case and onto the tile floor of the sun room almost as soon as I picked it up because I didn’t realize it wasn’t more firmly secured in there.
If Carter had damaged something of mine that I loved as much as he loves his iPod, I probably would have cried. Instead, I apologized repeatedly–this really is my week for guilt–and Carter, like the sweet husband he is, forgave me without hesitation or caveat.
