*Crickets*

1.10.2012 • at lunch time

Yesterday morning I busted my ass took a little tiny spill, and when I did my Blackberry took a swim.
In my head it happened in slow motion, but that’s not how it went down, that sucker flew out of my hand and sank into a huge puddle like a rock in 1/2 a second.

I was too busy to worry about it yesterday, I was bogged down with work.
Once I got ready to leave the office it was a different story.
What if I ran out of gas? I had a full tank.
What if I needed to call JR? I had just talked to him.
What if I had an accident? *knock on wood*

The big question and the reality is, what if I got BORED?
If there’s nothing good on the radio, and if I’ve forgotten my iPod, or it has fallen under my seat again...then what? I call people.
JR is my usual victim pick, if he’s not available I call my cousin or anyone else I can think of at the time.
You’d think that after a day at work being bombarded with emails, and reading blogs, tweets, Facebook other stuff (yes, I love me some STRIKE) I would welcome a quiet ride home, but no.

I made it home with little consequence.
Once there I was alright, except when it came time to check, double check and triple check that my alarm was set.
Insert much whining here..."Honaaaayyy...how am I going to waaaaake uuuuuup???? OMGeeeeee!!!!!”
He said he’d set his phone for me too.
O.K.

I woke up once during the night, but I don’t know what time it was, because my phone was not there, next to me...and I can’t see the alarm clock from my bed...because I’m blind as a bat...which is why I NEED my phone on the night stand!

I don’t know, the replacement is supposed to arrive tomorrow.
Have you ever had a phone actually arrive when they promised? yeah...me either.
What usually happens is, the guy who always leaves the packages on the porch, you know like my new $$$$$ laptop, or a frozen kidney to transplant or something, decides that he needs a SIGNATURE...because OMG it’s coming from Sp*int...it must be very expensive and important.
I’ve driven an hour to pick up a cell phone from the UPS office before, and chased down my female-man too...for a CELL phone!
Can you imagine the lengths I will go to for my beloved alarm clock/security blanket/entertainment center/BFF???
This could get ugly.
I might need to stay home tomorrow...I feel a virus coming on.

Sorry about your phone… more importantly though, did anyone catch you falling on film?

I realize that this advice comes a day late, but you can print out a form to sign and leave on your door so that FedEx, UPS or USPS will leave the package.

You know, for future purchases. smile

Sorry about the death of your phone.

I feel your pain.  When I dropped my old Curve into the toilet, I went into Matrix mode.  Like, “Noooooo!” Theeen III swoooopeed iiit oooutt offf thee <del>peeee</del> waaterrrr. 

But, alas, I suck as a super hero and my BB was dead, or as you say “swimming with the fishes”.  And get this:  I was leaving for Vegas first thing the next morning!  Luckily, I had insurance and they shipped another out Next Day Air.  Well, you know how much I loved that phone, because I made Mr. X wait until noon (when the FedEx guy normally swings by) to leave.  In other words, I was on the road to Sin City 6 hours late!  Can you even comprehend that?  DUDE.

More importantly, did your baby come today??  Make sure you DL the new BBM.  It has more smilies we can use! So excited to play!  smile
