I’m back in California as of last Tuesday. I’m going to spend the weekend in San Franciso dog & house sitting. I’m enjoying my time off, though there have some matters that have required my attention and taken me away from the feeling of liberation and relaxation I’ve been craving. They’ve been minor distractions and have been tolerable.
I dropped my phone into a campfire last Monday night, so have been without phone service since then. I should be rectifying that today. I fell into the fire too, and I thought that I had survived unscathed save for some scratches on my legs, I found a blister on my right calf this morning. Obviously I must have burned it. My fleece has some warping on it, but is still servicable, and my camera case is all messy and partly melted, but it did its job and protected the camera.
Here’s the victim of campfire abuse:
That being said, I’ve lost a significant portion of the numbers that I had stored in the phone, it being a pre-simcard model. I have most of the them stored on my PC, but the ones that I had not yet transferred over, I have lost. [Yeah Yeah Yeah, you gadget whores, the phone was ‘ugly’ to begin with, but I got three good years out of that beast, and was prepped for at least a few more until I fell into that burning ring of fire. — Apologies to Johnny Cash.] If you could send me your digits when you get a chance, that would be super. Just email me!
Speaking of a Johnny, happy birthday Jonny G!
