I have conceived of an unreasoning hatred for the Funtainer, which is a small and cleverly designed thermos with a pop-up straw that young children find easy to use. I bought Violet a Hello Kitty one some months ago, and just before we were about to leave on our vacation, the Funtainer rolled off the sofa and heavily onto my foot. Argh. Oh man, it hurt so bad, and worst of all was the knowledge that this was all caused by a damned thermos. Just a thermos! Not a car accident, or an anvil landing on my foot. A thermos.
Two weeks later, my foot is still swollen and painful. I never want to see that Funtainer again. I have hidden it away on the shelf. I'm punishing it with a time out. Maybe someday when my foot is healed, I can face it again.
