Lindsay Lohan Meant To Thank Charlie Sheen For $100K Except, Um, Her Phone Broke

Surprise, surprise, Lindsay Lohan is a flake about about sending thank-you notes.
Charlie Sheen sent Lohan a $100,000 check to help her pay her IRS bill (after all, LiLo is too big to fail!). But she didn't even bother to send him a friggin' text thanking him for the mula until he called her out in public, according to TMZ.
Lohan reportedly meant to thank him, except her phone broke and she lost all her contacts so there was no way on earth she could get in contact with Sheen to express her gratitude. (Tip for next time: I heard Sheen likes Twitter.) Then again, I guess LiLo has been pretty busy getting her probation revoked and making sure all her stuff in storage doesn't go up for auction.
She finally did send him some belated flowers and a thank-you card.
