Communications resume!

I have (finally!) retrieved my cell phone from Metro lost & found. [livejournal.com profile] queueball, [livejournal.com profile] driftwoodsun, [livejournal.com profile] cherrysher and all others who might have been trying to contact me on it, the lines are open. Fire at will.

... I feel like I should write something profound and pithy on the nature of modern communication here, but all I can think is, "thank CHRIST I didn't lose my entire phone book." I should probably commit some of those numbers to paper, in case this ever happens again...

You'll have to let me take a peek next time I see you, if there's a data transfer port, it might use the same cable I use. I've found a number of phones across various brands that seem to work with it, and they charge as much for this $50 cable when I found one for $5 on eBay. Fun times. Either way, if mine didn't work we could figure out what did, chances are if it's an old phone and it can interact with a computer than there's gotta be a cheap hardware/software package for it floating around somewhere. I ramble and obsess over it because even if it is a pain in the ass, it is so worth it. Especially on a phone like mine where there is only one way to display contact information and it sucks, but of course, also in the event of losing/breaking the damn thing.

Ah, the joys of technology. I'm scared of what'll come along in the next 10 years that I won't be able to live without. ^^;
