Today was not my day

I didn't know where to post this, but I just needed to vent.

Today I woke up late, and rushed out of the house to walk to the Zoo. As I'm down the block, I noticed I was 20 minutes early, so I decided to stop on the bridge at the park. It's a nice bridge, about 20 feet above the water! So I'm sitting there texting, and I turn around, but I had a strange spasm and I accidently flung my phone into the lake! So now, I don't have a phone, and I need everyone's numbers now!

Then, I get to the Zoo and find out we are closing early and I'm not needed, so I did paper work and animal care before hanging around waiting for my mom....ugh! NOT MY DAY!

Anyway, it's my websites 5th anniversary today, so that should occupy me someway!

Well, may I say that it just sucks! Not only are you out your phone, but didn't have to make the trip anyway!

Hope you have the numbers backed up!

That's the almost exact reason my brother got a new phone with Verizon that can be completely submerged up to something like 60 feet and still be okay.

He *loves* showing off that feature.

Now all he would need would be a diver willing to go get it, if in fell into the water!!

Does that mean that you have to make a decision between replacing the phone or coming down here for a few days in late December?

^If by January you mean? I think so. I can't go down without a phone. And I have barely enough money for the ticket round trip for the dates, but I don't have any spending money, and my parents wont let me go without, so we'll see what happend! I will come down before I graduate...I just wanted to come down before Space Mountain closes! (If it does, which it doesn't say on the site)

I do have my old phone, with numbers saved to it, just no SIM card!

Did you get insurance for it? OR are you covered under your parents homowners? Sometimes house insurance will cover those items! Might be worth it to check!
