Phone Kinda Works in a Toilet-y Way

SUP DUDES.

 
Phone kinda works.  I couldn’t get it fully apart because there was ONE SCREW that WOUDLN’T EFFING COME OUT and it was the LAST GODDAMN ONE, too.  I pulled 6 out, got to the 7th, and it wouldn’t budge and then I stripped it and gurrrrrr.
 
But I riced it overnight, and uh.  I feel like I’m looking at the screen through a foggy cave, but hopefully the condensation dries up a little in there.  And the audio’s fucked, but meh, it works.  That’s all I wanted.
 
DW never showed up because derp, he forgot my phone didn’t work.  Which is silly, because the only reason we even made plans is cos I signed onto Gchat (er, unblocked him haha oops.  I guess I had him blocked several forevers ago and forgot.) specifically to tell him my phone was dead, and he was like "oh lame, hope your day gets better, wanna get food or drinks?" and I was like SURE, let me know when, but not by phone, ha ha ha! And he’s like, yep, ha!  Also put it in rice!
 
And then gchat’d me at 10:45 to tell me sorry he forgot.
 
Blaaaaagggghhhhh shut up.  I mean I know it wasn’t intentional but UGH.
 
But it’s cool.  Turned on my phone and got the classic "oh sorry it’s so late, still working" text, which he probably sent around the same time I gave up on him anyway.  Dunno, since for me it came in at 8 AM, but generally he waits about a half-hour after the hour-long window he gives me, apologizes, and tells me he’s still working for another hour.
 
I really have learned, for the most part, not to expect to hear from him.  It’s been good, cos he’s blown me off a few times since that one weekend I turned off my phone to avoid being annoyed by the lack of contact, and I’ve barely even noticed (except once when he told me about wanting to hang out with his friends and invited me to come, but never texted me to tell me it was a go and then later told me stories of hanging out with them that night, so, yeah, that hurt, BUT I didn’t spend that day waiting for the call.  I just went about my bizz-nass as though it wasn’t happening, and only found out later that he’d snubbed me), but last night was (A) a shite day, (B) a day when I was already paranoid about a lack of phone, and (C) the last day before No Sex Week and I really wanted to get laid.
 
BUT WHATEVER, joke’s on him, because uh whatever, somehow it’s on him and not me because I totally wasn’t the patsy who waited around for him all night or anything, laaaawwwwwwl.
 
Fuck it all, though.  Jamie + Goodwill tonight + probably weed.  Nothing like stoned clothes shopping, am I right?  Anything to kill the pain of clothes shopping.  ANYTHING.

Man, something has to make clothes shopping bearable. Glad the phone is even marginally functional. Boo on DW.

I would keep it in rice as long as possible. I had a watch that got water inside it, condensated (that’s a word…) on the face and I just left it in rice for like, two weeks and it’s all completely gone. I realize it’s your phone and that’s not ideal, but rice is magic. ~I’ll be

Flakiness/inconsideration is one of my number one turn-offs. Yes, I have multiple “number ones” because they’re all equal! But yeah, that’s one of them. Throw turd at him. p.s. Haha, why was he blocked on gchat? p.p.s. No, never edit! Your stream of consciousness is too glorious for edits.

No, don’t put it in rice while it’s on… ~I’ll be

Because if it’s on while the rice is sucking the microscopic bits of water out of it, it could fuck it up with some other microscopic energy/battery/technical thing…I don’t know, I just know that I’ve been told to keep that shit off and in rice for as long as possible. ~I’ll be

hey mine took a swim in sweet tea and lived! I have a wind tunnel fan and after it spent about 48 hours in a bowl of rice, I put it on top of the fan for 12 hours with air blowing through it…still works! The condensation is from the water inside the phone getting all…foggy like b/c the phone is warming up from being on. Be careful it doesn’t fry it. But really, it works with the rice. http://global3.memecdn.com/please-feature-me_o_1540777.jpg

All of these people are talking about the miracle of rice. I wish rice had worked its magic on MY phone after it’d been soup’ed. 🙁 But maybe miso broth is more resilient than water, heh.

re: That’s… I don’t even know what to say about that ignoring-you thing. That was really shitty. I think when we’re really hurt by something in the past and it never gets resolved (we just force ourselves to forget it), it never actually goes away. So when something similar (maybe not even as bad) happens later, it summons up all those negative associations and makes us react worse than if it’dbeen a one-time thing. So, I think it makes sense that you were bothered. When I was breaking up with Brian, I got super sad imagining life without him. He was my best friend at the time, and as shitty as he was about certain things, he was still a huge part of my life and I cared a lot about him. After we broke up I spent a full day just sobbing over and over and thinking about what I’d just lost. But then… the next day came. And I was glad we broke up, because it needed to happen. He was making me feel so unappreciated and so unfulfilled – staying with him felt worse than breaking up with him. I guess the question is: What makes you sadder? Life WITH him, or life without him?

re2: D’awwwwwrrr that’s really sweet of you to say. I think they look a’ight, but to an outside observer I figured they’d look like poop. 😛 I LOVE YOU TOO AND *I’M* GLAD YOU’RE *MY* E-FRIEND!

Ryn: don’t worry I brayed like a tard donkey at it lol

re: Yeah, I do get that, I do. Everyone has to do a little bit of that give-and-take. We make choices about what we can accept not changing and what MUST change. I just… If that were a *constant* thing, that’s really shitty and not something YOU should have to change for. If it’s not constant, then I’m glad. And I also understand that us reading your diary get a very warped view, because virtually everyone flocks to their diary to vent about the bad stuff, rather than for the good stuff. I guess it just seems like a LOT of bad-venting, you know?
