Murphy's Law renamed....

Growing up, we were taught about Murphy's Law...except it was known as "The Price Curse" to us. It's a little gloom and doom unless you see it our way. You just have to assume that the weirdest, messed up version of what could possibly happen will actually happen. That way, you aren't surprised, you just laugh it off and know that it means you are a "true Price". I was hoping this would magically go away when I changed my name, but sadly, its genetic and my children inherited it too. Here are a couple examples of what I'm talking about.

* It apparently carries over if you marry into the family- When Jack and Amy got home from their honeymoon, Jack was being the nice new hubby and attempted to carry Amy over the threshold of their apartment. Jack should have seen this coming, since he had 26 years of the Price curse, yet he clearly wasn't thinking straight...They have a cute pic of the two of them just outside the door, but immediately following that, he knocked her head on the doorway and almost dropped her. Welcome to the family Amy...

* My camera died just as Michael Buble stepped onto the stage. Yep. I said it. That's why there aren't going to be a lot of great Buble pics on my blog as promised. I was so distracted by the events of the day that I forgot to check the battery life on my camera. I took pics of me and Mellie before the concert, a couple videos of the amazing opening act, and as Mike stepped onto the stage, the camera shut down and wouldn't even turn back on. So sad, but I couldn't act surprised, I had to expect it. But what I didn't expect was that it would carry over to Melanie too. She went to turn on her camera, just to find out that it too was dead. The Price curse has gotten stronger, look out my friends!!!
