My MP3 player is broken. I have let it sit for too long on the computer shelf - leaving it exposed to the lamp - and the back of it has warped a little and something rattles inside of it.

But it's not like I use it all of the time. In fact, I have rarely used it. I don't get why my parents buy me these electronic thingys. I never have a use for them. Like cell phones, I never call anyone and no one ever calls me. Why bother having one, then? Years ago, they got me a handheld palmpad thing. I've rarely used that too. It's because I have never had the need for it.

Mike just found out that he has to work today. It's 4:30 in the morning, and I am the only one up and the only one who is willing to give him a ride over to Rayovac. Mom and dad don't like him anymore - so I have to care for him. His money is draining due to a shitty car that costs more to fix than what it is worth.
