Frustration
Posted: 2008-11-17 20:04:42
Over a year ago, I bought a Sansa MP3 player, and found it to be very cool. Around the same time (maybe at the same time, I don't remember now) I got an FM broadcaster to connect the player to my car so that I can listen to tunes on the drive to and from work, without annoying commercials. Since buying it, the FM broadcaster has slowly been torn apart--by me. Every once in awhile I forget my player is in my lap, and then I stand up to get out of the car, and give the broadcaster a good jolt. It was reduced to just a little block of circuit boards and a screen, but still, it played on.
Tonight it finally gave up the ghost, when I ripped the circuit boards right off of the charger, leaving two sad little wire stumps... Moral of this story: don't rip your stuff apart by making the same mistake over and over again.
Seeing as I can't handle sitting through a single commercial break while also dealing with traffic, and my car has what we will call 'reduced radio capacity' I've already ordered a new broadcaster / charger which has a cradle for my MP3 player and hopefully will not get yanked on over and over again. Hopefully.
