Damn, Mikey. And I thought some imports over here were expensive. Maybe I should just send you a care package filled with American goodness. ::p:

@phoenixx don't even think on it! that was probably the most fleeting moment of their day. they've totally forgot that happened already!
^ I've mostly forgotten about it already and I'm sure they have too.

What a crappy day this turned out to be. I FINALLY got my replacement iPhone 4S after at least 5 weeks of waiting, after originally trying three times to get it, each time telling me it would be about three days.

I asked for black and I get a white one.

Also, I lost everything. All my contacts, notes, apps, messages, photos, all gone. I am absolutely livid because I was ASSURED they would be on the SIM card and I could just fire it up and see everything. No, the guy was wrong.

It's such a small thing but I couldn't be more furious. I ended up breaking my diet and going to the chocolate bar, a decision I'm already regretting.

I want to break things. This is such a terrible frame of mind but I am so raging.

My first hour has passed

My inbuilt reaction to countless telly fone calls with no identity which repeat instantly, is to have a go at someone.... (them to me? or me to them?) It's a crucial trigger to be asked my name. I dreamed last night about how I answered 'a fone' at my desk in my 14 years in an office. My patterns, which always worked, seemed to work fine when I pick up with 'good morning! :) or afternoon :)' OR 'hello! Mike speaking!'

My paranoia leads me to how callers to my home number will gauge me. My conduit to my future is a rec-roo-tah or telemarketer, or... an insurance firm to get me to buy their services to bank-rup-ture myself

I'm sure they'll assume any greeting is a fake. By announcing my own name, they'll be sure it's 'someone else'

My new tactic from yesterday, since I've been feeling SO GOOD recently listening to really loud music, I pick up with handsfree to let them listen. I move my little slab of nokia plastic closer to or from sub to tweeter

I always have 100% meaningful conversations with any unknown cat or dog in any street. Human voice content on a fone involves ' hello?hello?hello?hello?hello? '

My next fone topic is to ask 'what is your highest level of qualification?'
 
I just realized my birthday is in 6 days... Meh. 22 and don't look a day over 15 :p


Besides that I feel pretty down. I should probably make myself clean around the house and cook a little, since we don't have any food besides food that has to be prepared for dinner.

I don't want to give in to the empty feelings, but I don't know how to feel better. Feel like I can't escape what's troubling me... Just want to give up, but what more would there be to give up? Only what's left of my life.

Chocolate would make things better, for a little bit :p

I know, there's no light switch one can click to not feel things. I hope you find your joy.

I'm furious. My mom just got fired because she's dyslexic and has Parkinson's disease. Not that they said it outright of course, but thy did mention it was the shaking. That seems so wrong to me. She tries hard, and the patients loved her. Now she's crying.

I was miserable on my birthday earlier this year. I hope the same won't happen to you.

I'm still pissed. I didn't sleep well last night. I also lost the number of the cute girl I had lunch with, so unless she contacts me, I can't contact her.

Meh, whatever. I need to get over it.

Wow, that is disgusting. I'm so sorry to hear this. If there's a way to prove they fired her because of that (you said they mentioned her shaking), maybe she can fight it? Assuming you live in the US, It's illegal to fire someone due to a disability.

I hate (a large chunk of) people :mad:

::(: That's very sad and upsetting. This sounds cruel.

^ Oh no, that's awful. ::(: I definitely agree with Opaline, fight it if you can. That's discrimination and it is illegal.

The more I see your post now, the more irritated I get about that situation. Some people... :mad:

^ Hey, at least that new cover you got will be able to cover up some of that white, right? ;)

I'm really sorry you had to go through that though. I'd be just as mad probably, losing all that information. Sucks.

Don't feel guilty for breaking your diet. You're already in a bad mood, no need to kick yourself while you're down. It's just one day and heck, you needed some chocolate. Chocolate is wonderful and makes you happy. (literally! even if it's temporary) Continue right back with your diet tomorrow, tomorrow is a new day. Hopefully it'll go better for you. Hang in there, Mikey.
