I'm Soaking In It

Motherhood milestone of the weekend: first dunking by grinning child of entire, electronics-filled purse into fountain. Cell phone and car remote responded well to CPR, camera may have expired. (You'll be relieved or saddened to learn that no Blackberries perished in the incident; I'm holding out for the Singularity.)
