Default Well, that was stupid of me!

I was walking home from work earlier today, when I had one of those truly odd "WTF" moments. I look down at the grass, and there's a soggy Bella Donna record sleeve laying there on the ground, with the title cut out. For some unknown reason, I decide to pick it up off the ground and slip it inside my backpack. I get home an hour later, and take it out of my backpack. It's still relatively intact, so I lay it down on the floor in my room in front of my fan in an attempt to dry it out. Out of curiosity, I take a peek inside to see if the inserts are still intact... and 20 or 30 tiny ants come racing out of the sleeve. I start stomping the ants as they run across my bedroom floor, start pulling stuff out of my backpack, killing more ants as I see them, and finally "fumigating" the inside of my backpack with Neuta-Air in an attempt to kill the survivors. Finally, I fold up the misbegotten album and throw it in the trash.

So, the morale of the story is this: If you really want an album for the artwork alone, walk on down to Goodwill or Salavation Army and fork over the $2 for it.

omg that is so funny. I wouldn't be able to leave a Stevie sleeve just laying there rotting though, so I know what you were going through.

On the upside, I found Stevie Nicks lying face-down in the grass, picked her up, and carried her back home on my sweaty back. Things didn't really take a turn for the worse until I got her home and bugs started crawling out of her mouth.

My "Stevie Nicks Rocks" bumper sticker has a slit across the top of it, from the intense water pressure at the touchless car wash. The "R" on "Rocks" looks more like a "K" now. I'm sure people are laughing at it...time for a new sticker.
