Death of a Cell Phone

Tuesday I was working out, you know, lifting some HUGE weights, and then all of a sudden tragedy struck!

When lying down on the bench my cell phone slid out of my pocket and on to the floor. I didn't think much about it because it wasn't a great fall and my phone is pretty tough, so I went ahead and did the exercise. At the end of the exercise I was exhausted. I could barely hold the weights any more and I couldn't sit up. I only had one option: drop the weights. Little did I know, my cell phone was directly underneath the weight on the left side!! The weight fell briskly and crushed my poor little phone!

I frantically picked up the injured phone and examined the shell to see if it was ruined. Nothing looked wrong so I was momentarily relieved. Unfortunately it was just momentarily. I watched as the display went dim, never to light up again. And I cried...(a very little).

I went to Cingular the next day to get a new phone and the guy there scanned my old phone's SIM card to transfer the numbers. But alas, it was not my day. I had been saving numbers to my phone memory and not to the SIM card! I had nothing, no one, nada in my new phone. I was appalled, nauseous, a little light-headed, and overwhelmingly distraught at the thought of getting all those numbers back again. I mean I must have had a million friends....right?
Anyway...the point is, I NEED YOUR NUMBER!! Send me a message and until then, have fun and be safe when lifting weights. You never know what you might crush next.
