My room is a phone graveyard
Dec. 21st, 2007 02:47 amI'm cleaning my room to get ready for the arrival of Cat and Jared tomorrow morning. So this entry is mostly just a quick procrastination method. I may be 27, but I still hate cleaning my room!
You might notice that in the above sentences I said they were getting here tomorrow. Yes, once again.....Jenn is an idiot (TAH-DAH!). For three weeks now I have thought they were getting here on the 20th. She FINALLY sent the actual flight plans last night; turns out they leave on the 20th and get here on the 21st. Riiiiiight. Good thing I bugged her to send them, otherwise my ass would have been at Heathrow at 7AM today. And I would NOT have wanted to go back tomorrow. So a narrow escape all round. On the bright side, it gave me one more day to get everything all spic and span and Mary Poppins like for them. Room's almost there...
In other news, as I have been cleaning I have found something ridiculous. My room is a phone graveyard. Seriously, it's insane. There are seven mobile phones in my room, and five of them actually work! This is what I have:
1. My current phone (Orange contract sim)
2. My old phone (no sim)
3. My older phone before that (Orange pay-as-you-go sim)
4. Rachel's old phone that she traded me for the new one I got free when I signed my last contract (Orange pay-as-you-go sim)
5. Trevor's (my bro's) old phone (no sim)
6. Marie's old phone (Virgin pay-as-you-go sim)
7. David's old phone (Tmobile pay-as-you-go sim)
Heh - you can totally tell that Orange is my preferred network. I guess the abundance is basically due to people giving me their old phones when they leave because they don't know what to do with them. And the only two that are nice phones (camara phones) are #1 and #2. #3 and #5 are very serviceable, #4 is just barely, and #6 and #7 are frankly quite crap. I should just recycle them. The ringer on #7 doesn't even work. Actually, since #2 is locked to Tmobile but is a great phone, I should move the sim from #7 to it - that should work.
ANYHOW, I just wanted to say how silly and weird it is. I actually have all the chargers and everything for them too. Anyone need a phone? I might be able to hook you up...
And now back to the cleaning. Bah Humbug.
