Really. This is almost exactly what it looks like. Except for the fact that it doesn't graph parabolas, and that sucks too, because I totally sometimes want to lay down a derivative in between episodes of Snapped and painting my nails.
For two hours last night I didn't even receive information. It would just delete every little envelope that came in. An envelope would appear in the corner, and then, Poof. Vanish. I tried leaving the folder open so I could at least see a name attached to it, but it had a straight-to-nothingness policy. I got the corner envelope and that was it before those little mystery texts were mainlined to the glue factory.
But anyway, back to Phone Suckage 09, it's coolio and all if we're dealing with emails, because I have OTHER more RELIABLE sources to get my emails, like checking my actual email on a computer. But texts. Those are just gone forever. And you all know how I feel about texts. Is it too dramatic to say they make my life worth living? Do I care?
So unless I ask everyone in my address book if they texted me during those hours (which I won't because that would be more embarrassing than having a shitty Blackberry), there are definitely several people thinking I'm a total asshole for not responding to them. And, yeah I don't respond to every text in the world, so there are some people that think I'm an asshole anyway. But I prefer my assholeishness to be by CHOICE. Not at the whims of my beat down Blackberry. (I knew it was bad two years ago when a cashier at Trader Joes asked me if I had the first Blackberry ever made. Well played, Trader Joes cashier. I believe they call that "negging".
Srsly. I can't handle the heartache of a 'Nam-era Blackberry anymore and would be forever grateful and I promise to never drunk text you.
Or drunk text you all the time, if you're into that kind of thing.
Kthx.

Remember when you would have your TI 85 and the night before a test try to put all the formulas in there in text function so you didn't have to study?
Um, that's what I would have done if I wasn't banging cheerleaders.
Yeah, lets go with that.
Texas Instruments kick ass. Can't text on it? Nonsense. 14 upside down? hi? Oh, it's so bad it's so good.
I had a TI-85. I spilled OJ on it once and the buttons would make a crunchy noise.
I don't have an iPhone to give you, but I would like to receive drunk Clover texts just the same.
rs27- the ti 85 was my nemesis in high school. why do i feel such a fondness for it now?
lickedysplit- and 07734 upside was hello. clearly we were not the ones doing cool things in high school.
bex- don't all ti-85s have crunchy buttons? i can totally hear the crunchiness in my head! does that sound ever go away?? and homie, send me the digits. i'm ready to booze right now just to give you some text lovin!
I had that exact same problem with my Blackberry. Replacing the SIM (SIMM? I don't know what it stands for, so I have no idea if there are two Ms.) card helped.
Getting an iPhone helped, too.
