reunion

tonight was wierd. i guess im really old now, because we just had our ten year high school reunion tonight.
i was pretty sure only old people have those...

phone problems

my phone died on me earlier this week. i just got a replacement phone in the mail yesterday, but i seemed to have a bit of a problem: none of my phone numbers transfered over from the sim card. argh. and, of course, i didnt think ahead and write down any numbers i had on my phone (and i certainly dont know any of them by heart...).

so, here is the thing: if i did have your number, i dont anymore. therefore, i must make this little request- please call me! because i cant call you.

a shout out

i dont normally do this, but this post is for one person in particular. so, if you are not my brother, then dont read this.

hey bro, happy birthday! i love you, old man! sorry i didnt call, but it was kind of out of my control (see post below). ill see you soon, so ill make it up to you then. we cool?

no phone home

about a month ago i had some problems with my new phone. i went to check the time, opened it up, and was met with a screen of crazy color static (kind of like the black and white snow fuzz, but with colors). i was a bit confused, but let the phone battery die and then plugged it back in for a recharge. soon after it returned to its normal self. only a scare. well, last night it did it again! i tried the same technique, but this time to no avail. its truly dead. God rest its soul. i went to the phone place today to look into a replacement (its still under warranty), and called for a new one. it doesnt come until friday, so i guess im phoneless until then. i hate to admit it, but thats going to be tough on me!

catching up

wow, its been quite a busy couple of weeks! ive been too busy doing stuff to actually slow down and write about stuff! this is a bit of a new thing for me, but i dont think ill mind getting used to it...

here is the strange thing though: ive gotten so used to writing about all the things i do on this blog thingy, that im actually forgetting what ive done since last i posted. creepy... for example: what did i do on labor day? i have no idea! but for some reason, the chicago department of transportation seems to think i was at the o'hare airport parking illegally. humm. i havent dropped anyone off at the airport in almost a year, but maybe i just drove down there to park in a no parking zone. i wouldnt put it past me, that crazy bugger.

me thinks i should look into this, no?

sick ward

yesterday i went to the hospital. not because i was hurt, rather, to visit a friend. last weekend she got bit by a spider or something on her let. didnt think anything of it, but by wednesday it had gotten pretty swollen. so, she went to a doctor and had it looked at. he cleaned it out and dressed it. friday she went back in to get it redressed, but instead was told that she needed to stay in the hospital because they thought it looked infected. yikes! she had to stay saturday night too, but its looking a lot better, so she hopes to be out today.

i stopped in and visited her. i figured she was probably bored, so i brought a couple old issues of some magazines i had, and i brought the quiz cards from the game 'scene it'. shes just as into movie trivia as i am, so we had a good time trying to stump each other! we kind of forgot to keep score, but im quite certain that i won. though she is just as sure that she did. i figure that all the drugs they have her on are messing with her memory...
