My beautiful, intelligent, daughter, has now broken not two, but four, yes four! Power cords, two iPad and two micro usb. I don't know how she does it.
Then I remembered getting the coolest brand new tape player with a microphone attached so you could sing along. I got one for Christmas when I was 7. By August of the next year, I'd somehow (I really don't know how), broken 3 of them. My parents wouldn't even let my grandparents buy me another since my dad was sick of trying to fix them.
Later I found out that my grandmother literally broke off four different shift sticks for automatic transmission cars. The kind that were attached up by the steering wheel. When bench seats still existed and me, as the littlest, always got stuck in the 'butthugger' middle front seat.
Guess we're just a line of accidentally destructive ladies? o_O
 
Wow Talent! I seem to beable to watch a dvd over and over again till it breaks but what you said I just wow.
Maybe its a strange super power.

I have destroyed so many electronics over the years. Sometimes it seems all I have to do is touch them. This is why, no smart phone, one tv in the house, and all I have is my kindle.

I've always thought, erroneously of course, that my dad getting a massive electric shock (it's lucky he survived), right before I, umm, came into existence, as it were, just put extra electricity in my body. I do have a higher than normal level of copper in my blood, too. Always have. Plus, when we had an electric fence for the horses, I got shocked almost daily. Like an affinity for electricity. In a bad way, lol.
 
My mother has a magnet field issue. When she walks in front of computer and tries to use electronic gadgets they get all messed up. My mother was hit by lightening. It wasn't direct hit, but what happened was she was washing clothes and it jolted the washer and jolted her and sent a burning feeling through her whole body. The doctor said she was quite lucky because, that can kill a person. Well, now she is just a little magnetic monster. Baaaaa Plus she lives right up next to an easement which has caused problems with the house in general magnetic energy wise. Lightening seems to like to follow me as well. My yard and house have been hit multiple times. Once it hit a tree outside the house and knocked R2 and I both out of bed the power and vibration was so intense. I cried it scared me. I though a nuclear bomb hit the yard. lol
 
Scary @tulagirl we rarely get lightning here. It did hit a tree just outside our third floor apartment window about five years ago now. Evelyn was only two and doesn't remember, but the whole building was shaking as though from an earthquake. We don't really get those up here either.
 
I just kinda imagined Mini Takerina rising outta the sea, making Godzilla roars and breathing fire at the cords. And yes! She was in a tutu and pink leotard in case you were wondering.

You must now join the X-Men and take on the name Lightning Blast.

Make it a hot pink leopard print leotard. :D
 
The automatic blood pressure readers the doctor uses don't work on me. You have to take my pressure with a manual one. Also iono why but when I was in ICU once the heart monitor messed up a lot with me they had to use a older one the newer one kept saying I was dead.

I thought I was the only one that lived through a lightening strike! Years ago I was in a really bad storm and my car was hit by lightening while I was driving it. I was prego and lost the baby, but I lived. Although my car was literally melted all the rubber and wire connections. I got it to drive me home and then the next day all the fluids had drained out because of the holes in the tubing and anything that wasn't metal was melted through. I took it to my car repair shop and the mechanics were shocked. I didn't tell them what had happened so they called me and said, "What on earth happened to this car? Everything is melted!" When I told them it had been struck by lightening the previous day they were surprised but said that makes sense then! It had all sorts of crazy problems after that and I had to sell it. I don't have any of the magnetic issues, but boy that was a scary experience!
You're so lucky to be alive and ok! I'm glad you're alright!

Wow. :eek:
 
lol, thanks! I just remember thinking after the lightening hit the car was, "Oh my gosh.... I"M STILL ALIVE!!!!....How did I live through that? Oh no, the storm's getting worse I need to GO NOW!" Then I put the petal to the metal and tried to get home through that insane electrical storm /tornado warning in Missouri. There were literally huge branches being ripped off trees as I was driving down Lindell in St. Louis and flying through the air because of the high winds.

It's what I get for living in Tornado Alley. *sigh* BUT I LIVED!!!! I'm STILL HERE, *evil cackles*

Even lightening cannot take me out :D
