The Vibrator is Dead. Long Live the Vibrator.


Dead

The last words of my favorite vibrator ever:

“zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz ……… zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz … zzzzzz … ” And the rest is silence.

Dead from a short in the cord. Or it just doesn’t find me attractive any more.

I went to the Internet to find its twin brother, and of course was led astray by its blue rubbery two-headed cousin, TLC9906-8.

So you’d think I’d have a photo of my new friend, in situ, or at least in the room but NO. I ordered it TEN days ago and it still isn’t here. And given that the most lovable thing about The Late Vibrator was its speed (less than a minute), the WAIT for this new one is very frustrating.

Granted, I might have given my money to an Internet scam that assumes you would never contact them to complain that YOUR VIBRATOR IS LATE. I emailed them. I didn’t even imply they cheated me out of a vibrator (or as I called it, “Item number TLC9906-8.”) I did not end with “P.S. I am VERY frustrated!”

I might have to go back to the store by the Mall where I met the dearly departed vibrator and buy him again. I might even stock up, since he seems to have a short life span. Serves me right for being unfaithful in my heart.

  1. Wait, what does that “less than a minute” refer to? The ah, result? Wouldn’t that be more down to you than your dead friend? Surely you don’t mean that’s how long it takes to power up?

  2. My boyfriend had a toy with a corded remote that had a short in the cord. It still worked, but if we put it on the bed and accidentally rolled over on it; one of us got a jolt!

  3. Big Dot – I am the Queen of the boudoir, old thing, and the Queen doesn’t like to wait. It powers up instantly. And believe me, I would not be so timely without my dead friend.Am_in_StL – I didn’t worry about a shock, and now I do.

  4. I wonder, are you paraphrasing The Magnetic Fields, or Steven Page covering the Magnetic Fields?
