Daggummit.

My raggedy phone finally took its last breath about a week ago. Apparently those Cingular $15 Go phones are pretty disposable according to the guy who works at Best Buy. They serve their purpose, if you break your phone but still have your SIM card..instead of renewing a whole contract or paying 200 bucks for the cheapest phone offered...you can just buy one of those. Mine lasted about 6 months before it started to malfunction. So, I went and got a new phone with insurance. This was Thursday. I loved that phone already. It was a fancy little number and didn't cost me a dime.
The tragedy struck last night at about 11 pm. I was grilling some shishkabobs and some marinade splattered on me so I ran to take the clothes off so I could wash them before a stain set in. Soon after, I was looking for my phone to call a friend and couldn't find it anywhere. Hours later and after turning my house upside down, I get this funny feeling that its in the washing machine. Indeed, it was. I'm pretty sure it isn't going to fix itself, though I still keep trying to turn it on every ten minutes. Oh well....all of this to say, if I'm outta pocket for a few days, well, you know why.
