I at least have to keep the thing til my can of protein powder runs out

I broke my "smoothie maker" (i.e., the simplified plastic blender I got free at the bank) by dropping the pitcher part on the ground as I was trying to wash it. It cracked, but still looked like it might be usable, so I made a smoothie and discovered I had to put my hand over the crack in the pitcher so my protein shake wouldn't ooze out everywhere.

It's like, before I had a smoothie maker, I felt no need for a blender of any kind. But now that I have had a smoothie maker and lost it, there is a hole in my life that can only be filled by a blender-type appliance, and I will therefore have to go purchase one.

Thanks a lot, free gift from the bank.
