A True Story

Once upon a time, I went to Africa. I took my nearly new Flip Video Camera that I bought with birthday gift cards, coupons and money I found in the washing machine.

It broke- my first day there.

I had to borrow video footage from everyone else.

When I got home, I didn’t act entirely Christian on the phone with the Flip Customer Service Dept. It got me no where. Plus, I had GUILT.

So. I went to Twitter. Because if anyone can help, it’s Twitter friends. I whined and complained and offered to trade a nearly new broken Flip to someone who collected things that don’t, um, work.

A sweet friend (YOU BETTER CLICK THAT LINK) offered to send me her nearly new extra video camera for a bit of advertising. And it’s pink, to boot (girl power!)

She is a dear. Her blog is hilarious. We even hugged once.

Be her friend, subscribe to her blog. Follow her on Twitter.

So my video camera won’t break-I think it’s called Karma.

Thanks, Marcy. I got the camera today and will be using it immediately to capture my toddler flushing stuff down the commode—What??!! I better go stop her.
