Default Battery Killer!!!
Didn't we have a discussion, not too long ago, about us MSers being battery killers? Well I have graduated to battery charger killer.

I killed a charger for my e-cig, while in the hospital and I just killed my cell charger!!!

I am always having a hard time with making them work and now it doesn't at all..

WHAT IS HAPPENING???

Yup. I kill toothbrush batteries and watch batteries. I asked my neuro about it and he acknowledged that it is very real, but has no idea what causes it. I asked if it could be too many MRI's doing something to me and he didn't want to speculate on it.

Sal, we used to have a TV oh shoot...in a cabinet...(?)

Anyway, whenever I walked past it, the TV would shut off...

I think I glow in the dark but nobody tells me

I not only kill batteries and chargers, I killed my xmas tree lights, too! One by one, I watched as the strands went out, These are those little clear lights that "never" go out..

DD is bringing some more lights from the grocers, to sling on there, so it doesn't look stupid with the ten little lights that are still lit.

On the other hand, I feel great..

We are electrical machines...I wonder if our overactive immune systems are a symptom of an overactive electrical system in our bodies?

Could be? I'm convinced that I am the cause of this happening to me.

Someone told me that it could be my powerline is out of kilter?

Whuh? I have never heard that we are battery killers!

I don't think I've killed a battery.

I'm married to an electrician, so maybe that plays into it...?
