Woe

Frankly, I'm not that cut up about the phone. I'm just pissed that I now have to deal with replacing it. Ugh.

I left work early (since I worked over the weekend) all excited to go lay around in my pajamas and take a nap and watch tv and all that good stuff. Took my phone out of my pocket as I walked out the door and the entire screen is spider-webbed. Now I am trying to decipher the fine print on carrier websites instead.

Shoot me.

Boo.

Although does it still work? If so, I guess it's less immediately urgent...

(I want you to have your rest!)

[promethia_tenk]

It does still work, though the breakage is extensive enough that putting off a replacement is definitely not a good idea unless you want glass shards in your thumb.

(Also I have an old phone sitting around which also has a broken screen, though it is less broken than this one, so I could switch to that for a bit).

The problem is more mental. It's not like doing one's taxes or other nonsense that is easy to ignore. I know too much about phones. My brain is going to worry at it until I do something about it.

LOL. File it under INTP Problems?

[promethia_tenk]

Pretty much, yep >_<

I think I've come up with my plan. (It would not be so bad if I just needed to get a new phone, but the carrier I was on you can only use certain models, which I would not be able to get for three weeks . . . so I'm switching carriers too, hence the annoyance. Stupid carriers, ruining perfectly good technology.)

Aye, this.

[promethia_tenk]

Ok, well, I've solved as much as I can until my new sim arrives, so life may resume ; )

Hope the rest of your day is more fun! :)

Back in leggings again. Things are looking up!

[owlboy]

Can ye not replace the screen?

[promethia_tenk]

I guess, probably? But the thing broke in my pocket. I'm not sure that's a winning proposition to sink more money into.

Also, like a proper Ne user, I live in a perpetual state of the grass is always greener, so time for something new, natch.

[owlboy]

Tru.
It's always nice to have an excuse to buy new things.

I got an adorable little iPhone SE. I miss bitty phones.

Though I'm going to miss Google knowing everywhere I go and everything I do. Cause that's damn useful.

I turn all that tracking shit off and add like 500 vpns to everything because it creeps me out lol
