Maybe it's a gift, or a sign from above

I should probably preface this with saying I haven't worked out or eaten well in the month I've been away from home.

So I got back today from Australia, vowing to get back in the workout regimen and to start eating right again (okay, to eat better than I have been over the last month, for those who have seen my diet at home and would challenge me that I "eat right") . So I step on my scale, complete with body fat monitor, brace myself, and what does it say? It says "low battery" and turns itself off.

Great. I've gone and broke the bloody scale.
