Another Amazing Beach Day

After the husband worked on the truck from 7 am to 4 pm, we decided to take the kids out to the beach. The weather was amazing and the heat index 107 degrees. Obviosuly, we live in Florida, so that did not last. We made it to the beach with some really dark clouds hovering above us, hubby and I were debating if it would be necessary for us to put up the umbrella since it didnt look like we were going to be there much longer. The kids walked  over to the water and I twitted a picture of the clouds. Just then, it started pouring. It was a torrential! We gathered all of our things and made the run, along with everyone else at the beach, towards the parking lot.
As i twitted another picture of myself, drenched in the comfort of the truck, I saw someone else's post about Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl talking about techniques to write, i press play, the video starts and.. no volume. Weird. I check on the side of my phone and its on max. Hmm, i start playing with it to see if i had clicked a button i wasnt supposed to but nothing. Then this static noise started, obviously, from my phone. In the torrential downpour it must have gotten wet, which i didnt notice as it seemed to be all dry. End of story, we wasted an hour and a half of Diesel gas and a $500 phone down the drain for 2 minutes at the beach.
It never fails in my life, when something great happens something bad will finish my day. We were able to start the truck that had been out of service for five months and now my phone is caput!

Just my luck, right?
