Day of Mourning

What’s more frustrating than two toddlers vying for attention by crying and whining in what feels like hours and hours but is only about one hour while you’re trying to get ready for work and you’re not ignoring them but possibly continuously feeding the fire that is them without knowing it*?

Well, my beloved iPod has gone missing, and I’ve looked everywhere. It’s possible that the girls took it (as they did our keys last night and had Josh looking for a half an hour this morning to find them**), but I think I would have found it by now. It’s been a few days. And I’m frantic. What’s even stranger is that the earphones were still in my purse with no iPod, when I know that they were attached. Nothing else was missing. What I hate is the fact that it is “missing” and not exactly “lost” or “stolen”. What if I go buy a new one only to find my original iPod a day later?

iPod, WHERE ARE YOU???????????

So, I guess I know what I’ll be asking for Christmas this year. Or, maybe a belated birthday present?
