new phone, new boots

[velessa]

My whole family got new cell phones today, but I'm not sure how I'll like mine. It's a flip phone, but it's a bit wider and longer (due to the antenna) than my old phone; that's what I really don't like about it because I carry my phone in my pocket. I don't know if this one is going to fit and it'll probably be uncomfortable. And now I have to learn how to use a whole different system and reprogram everything into the new phone. *cringe* I don't like change, I like to stick with what I know (when it comes to electronics at least, I'm not exactly technologically inclined). At least I'll still have my old phone number. I really do need a new phone because mine kept giving me problems, so this one had damn well work better than mine and be worth the effort.

I also had to get new riding boots on Saturday because mine freaking *broke* near the end of my shift. I knew the heels were detaching from the bottom for a while, but I decided to keep wearing them until they fell apart completely. Well it happened Saturday, so I had to run out and get a new pair so I'd have them to wear to work on Sunday. That turned out to be a really bad day to break in new boots because we were totally swamped with customers, and I ended up being on my feet and running around without any breaks from about 7am until 1pm. It totally sucked. As expected I now have quite a few blisters to tend to, and it's back to work for me this afternoon. Yay. Still, this is only my 3rd pair in 10 years of working at the stable, that's not bad.

I agree, you needed a new phone :p

Did you know you called me a while back and ended up leaving a max-length message in which people were talking in the background? Heh. Then when I called back to advise you of the fact, I guess you didn't hear but accidentally answered anyway, because once again I got to hear distant, muffled voices for a minute before giving up.

Luckily I guess we have the same network, so it didn't cost anybody anything. So the number/network is gonna stay the same?

Supposedly sometimes you can transfer all your stuff to a new phone by just plugging in the old card, but I've only ever had this one so I don't know anything about how that might work. Might save time though.

Anyway, good luck with the new things.

What?? No, I had no idea! I never lock the keys so I suppose that could've happened sometime. I guess one good thing with this phone is I can't accidently hit a bunch of random buttons. The number is the same but I don't think the network is; I was on Cingular before and this one is Verizon. I doubt my Nokia memory card would work in a...whatever this thing is.
