Along with my promotion, I promoted my cell phone.

I had this P.O.S. phone that I got just to tie me over for a while. You know, the old dinosaur Nokia that keeps getting "better and better" as the years go by. The phone is also known as "the one I got for free." Anyway, yeah, had that since September. Figured it would be good to just have something simple that worked. Well, it did and it didn't.

Yesterday, I was at Walmart. (Note to self: Do NOT go to Walmart on a Sunday - what the hell was I thinking?) I had been talking on my cell with Caysie for a few minutes upon entering the store to see if she needed anything. And then Grammy called and I called her back and left a voicemail. Then I noticed an older Messican man following me. The only word of English he spoke was "yes." He was following me and kept saying "yes, yes, yes, yes..." along with some Messican mumbo jumbo. Creepy, I know. But it didn't phase me too much because Walmart was a freakin' zoo so there was no way the Messican Creeper McCreeperson was going to harass me in any other way. However, I was still cautious and watchin' my back, if not for the Messican man then for the screaming Messican children running up and down the aisles knocking everything off the shelves. Somewhere along those lines, I lost my phone. No idea where it went. I backtracked, I went to Lost and Found, did circles around the store looking EVERYWHERE. No phone, no go.

Anyway, went to AT&T today and got me one of dem purty phones. A Blackberry Curve. I needed something that will help keep me organized between school and work, now that I'm a big kid and all. And of course, something that worked and didn't take 5 minutes to unfreeze. I got a real good deal on it because the manager "liked" me.

So, basically, I'm excited. Downside: I lost ALL of my contacts. Thanks to my stellar memory, I was able to add a lot of people into my phone, but unfortunately, that doesn't include everyone. So, if you could be so kind as to send me your info, either email or blog comment or standard mail or whatever floats your boat, that'd be great.

Thanks,
The Management
