July 28th, 2006damn phone
Several weeks ago I dropped my cellphone for the, oh, say, 30th time, and a little part broke off. It was a small piece of gray plastic that holds the battery in. Fortunately, I was able to shove the two halves back in and voila! the battery stayed on.
I dropped it again on Monday in Texas. On concrete. Which was gray.
My sister and I spent several minutes looking at the ground until we realized it was futile and gave up.
I now have a phone where I have to wrap a hairband around it to keep the battery on.
Stylish, no?
I checked with my ::coughevilsatanicbastardcough:: phone company and it turns out that I get an upgrade to a new phone (presumably for free, but what is ever actually free..) at the end of this month.
So I’ll be ghettoing it up for the next month.
If you call and you’re suddenly disconnected, it’s because I needed to put my hair up.

haha! Bricolage, women know how to solve anything, don’t we ? 😉

If you have Verizon, the upgrade is actually free. (If you order the upgrade online, otherwise you have to deal with the mail-in-rebate b.s. If you do it online, the rebate is *instant*) I just upgraded a week and a half ago, and got the brand-spanking-new Razr phone. *impressed whistle*. I didn’t even have to pay shipping.

I always thought that concrete was purple. Silly me.
