Mourn and laugh at me fellow a-techers... Damn cell phone problem =(

I can't believe this! I just bought a Nokia 8290 from anandtech and got it 2 days ago. It costed me $75. I liked it but it wouldn't work with my sim card! I have Cingular and the phone is voicestream, I didn't know that but I could've easily resold it for a higher price on ebay and make a little cash. If it did work I would've kept it. Just yesterday night, I was out with my friends going to watch a movie. And being a stupid, fool that I am. I brought the 8290 to show my friends, not really show-off 'cause it didn't work. Went to a theater saw it, but couldn't find entrance 'cause it was somewhere hidden and crap and had to drive all the way around here and there. Passed by like 3 or 4 times. So then we just left and drove around and ended up in LAX causing hell. After that, we just went to another theater we could find easily. I got a tub of popcorn with my butter =) So much butter that after the movie, I had a drunken feeling. And so of course I didn't know wtf was happening. So when I woke up the next morning it felt like an f'in hangover. And that's when I realized that between the time at the movies and when I got home, the cell phone was LOST!! So basically I just blew $75 to teach my self a lesson on not to get small cell phones that easily slip out of your pockets. I am writing this because I feel that the off-topic forum is a place that can soak up my full-fledged anger and spit it right back at me =) One last word... F _ C K !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am done =)

better pat down your friends. you'd be surprised at how people will take advantage of a person in a drunken stupor! in this case, swiping your fancy phone.

LoL... The last thing I want to do is to lose my cell phone AND my friends all in one swoop. I just asked them if they've seen it. Well it hasn't showed up. I think it might've slipped out in the theater (Damn theater chairs). Hehe I used to watch Saved By the Bell... That was a tite show =) Ahh the good ol' days. It really got killed when they went to college. Stupid producers. Actually it might've been all right if it had sex talk and a lotta sex stuff going on in the college episodes. Well just a thought =) They could've been the pioneers of SEX TV!!!
