Only on TV?

MomMom and company did get to see me dressed up once at a DDO. I had just come from one of my meetings. Usually, I'm dressed in t-shirt, shorts, sweats, or jeans.

I just did something stupid a little bit ago. I had my cell phone in my dress shirt pocket, and I was leaning over the toilet. Gravity overcame stupidity, and my cell phone fell into the toilet. I dried it off as best as I could, and now have it on my car charger. It's acting up, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it'll work. It started acting up, so I copied all of my contacts over to the SIM card. I just hope that I can get a new phone!

I hate when that happens...although I never dropped one in the toilet before..I was at Costco once, washing my hands in the ladies room when the faucet all of a sudden went nuts and sprayed water all over the place, including getting my purse soaking wet and my cell phone was water logged. It never worked well again so I ended up getting a better phone in the long run. And i keep my purse far away from sinks now.
I hope you can get another phone that won't cost too much.

I share minutes with my sister (T-Mobile), but she doesn't have a protection plan. She called them, and they said that their cheapest phones start at $60.

I went to the Carrer Fair at the Thomas & Mack yesterday. It was ok, but it was focused more towards interns, and graduates with degrees. Except for some free Sun Chips, beef jerky, and a few other minor goodies, it was a waste of time/money/gas.

If you look at my profile picture, you'll see me in my usual schmata. I don't have the beard anymore, tho'. I took it apart and dried it out, but it's still acting up. My sister googled a solution, bury it in a bowl of uncooked rice over night, then give it a try. I'm about to go to the shop, and see what they can do for me.

I dropped mine in a pile of fresh snow and it blanked out for a while. First thing you should do is take the battery out and let the unit dry out. Usually even with a protection plan some don't cover water damage.

Mine works fine now. Good luck with it!
