I have the worst luck..... ever.

So, now that my break's over, and I'm back in school for the rest of the semester, things have calmed down quite a bit.

I decided to take a little trip over to Hamilton, to see my Aunt and Uncle. Harmless enough, right?
................Wrong.

While in Hamilton, I dropped my cell phone, off the escarpment. For those of you who don't know, the escarpment is a LARGE CLIFF, that runs down the middle of the city.

And my dumb self dropped my cell phone off of it.

Series of events:
1) Aunt says to James' cousin: Why don't you take James to see the escarpment??? (coincidentally, they live in a rich neighbourhood, where the backyard backs out on to the escarpment)

2) James goes with cousin in the backyard to see this escarpment.

3) James lights a cigarette, and drops his lighter

4) James bends over to pick up his lighter

5) James' cell phone falls out of his shirt pocket

6) James: "SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!... how far is that drop?" Cousin "oh about 700 feet, straight down. There's a bed of rocks at the bottom."

7) James considers suicide, because without his cell phone, has no will to live. (hehe, jk)

9) James calls Bell Canada, to get a replacement phone, since he was smart enough to pay the extra seven dollars a month for "breakorloseyourphoneinanywayandwe'llreplaceitforfreeeeeeee insurance", and is told they have no more of his phone left, and it is on backorder. In the mean time, he can go to a Bell store, and get a "loner" phone, to use until then.

10) James goes to Bell once he is back in Toronto the following day, and is given a pink loner phone, since it was the only one they have left.

11) James blames his Aunt. Not the fact that he really only wanted to go to the tree lined escarpment to sneak a smoke, since his aunt is a doctor, and just wont stand for that mister....


I'm really getting tired of this talking in third person bull.
Anyway, I'm still waiting for my new phone. And its been about 3 weeks.
I want to apologize to my 0-3 readers for not posting for so long. I was recently given a promotion at work, I have some final exams coming up, my parents needed help painting their kitchen, and i recently bought a "new to me" used car that ive been working on.

  1. You're just full of excuses aren't you, Mister? Just kidding! No, you don't know me - came over from Motherhood in NYC. Read your cat blog - will comment on that one later. Just so you know...a REAL man WEARS pink, but doesn't carry a pink phone.

  2. Well, today I checked the mail (Which is difficult for me, since i lost my key for my mailbox, and have to use a paperclip to jimmy it open every time i want to open it), Which I do every few days.....
    And a package was in there. It had my replacement phone. I was very happy.

    guilty confession: I own a couple pink shirts from Hollister and American Eagle.
