R.I.P Conair

This is Conair.

I got Conair as a High School graduation present, from my Best Friend, eight years ago.

Conair... has been laid to rest.

The husband made me.

It blows our circuits, daily.

It is broken.

It probably is a fire hazard.

But he... he did a great job over the years.

This is me trying to hide Conair in the closet.

I got caught.

Hubby said "Brittany Ann Marie!"

sigh.

So, I got Adam to do my dirty work.

He took Conair to the trash dumpster in the sky.

R.I.P Conair. June 2000-August 2008.


This is Conair's replacement.

I call her, Pinky.

hahahahahah Great post. You were lucky to get eight years out of a hairdryer! I bought one for the BA two years ago and the other morning it ceased to function in my hand. Accompanied by smoke and the smell of burning. OMG...nowait...phew...not my hair on fire.
Welcome Pinky. Long may you blow.
(Did I really just type that?)

Ha ha ha!!! You got caught! That's a good deal for 8 years! Mine seem to kick it after a year!

Ohhhhhh, B U M M E R ! ! !
Eight years was good, but isn't it a true bummer to break in a new hair appliance? or an appliance of any kind for that matter.
Just when you get going on a consistent R O L L, the thing has to be dumpered.
May it rest in recyletown.
I wish you as many years and hassle-free blowdrying with Pinky.

I am so sorry to hear about your loss of Conair.

I lost my Conair as an infant recently. He was just over a year old.

I think about him every day.

:(

LOL! That's great it lasted so long!

Kat said...

Ooo. Pinky is pretty!

Stacy said...

LOL...well, my condolences to you on your loss! At least pinky is prettier than Conair. ;) My hairdryers last a long, long time. Mostly because they get used maybe once a month. :)
