Iphones dont float
Sunday and Monday have been like ground hog day. I sleep well with the wonder drug “Avitan” doing its stuff over night but then I wake to a fairly flat, yuk day. Maybe I should take it all day!
Petra managed to drop her iphone into a friends swimming pool yesterday and then, much to Siena’a shock, disrobed down to her smalls to duck dive into the pool to save the phone. Apparently, the owners of the house were just about to pull out the twister, light a candle and play “miss free love” from the Hudo Guros until they realised Petra was trying to save her phone.
“Dad it was so grouse, Dad, I mean in her undies Dad…I could die Dad, I mean XXXXX parents were home”!! “Dad”!! Poor Siena was mortified. Anyway, the phone died. No doubt the insider will share her take on the incident.
Anyway, I booked in at the Apple store, Chadstone, 11.20 am at the Genius Bar (should be called the not so Genius Bar, but that’s another story) to share my story. I lied, told them I dropped the phone whilst shaving, tried to take that important phone call and in she went into the sink. He smiled and said “we will swap the phone for $179.00”. I thought that was a bargain, so we did.
All this shuffling about tired me out so I sat while Petra shopped a bit. I also noticed the absence of the male species in shopping centers. As I looked around it was the domain of the young mum and retired women. Nothing more to add than that. The shopping centre was also basically empty other than the frenetic activity in the Apple store and at the Genus Bar. They are doing something right or their clients are dong something wrong. Probably a bit of both.
I called my Doctor to tell him that this cancer thing really does suck and I am over the sympathy and empathetic nods and its time to kick this into another gear. He listened and prescribed a different anti nausea drug and faxed the script to a local chemist that I will pick up later today. Almost 7 days in post the last chemo cycle and I am hoping that this will help turn the corner.
Other than that, it’s all ok.
My Unplanned Sabbatical 
I had a similar experience with my IPhone dropping into a bowl of sorts. I will leave it to your imagination. However, after a quick wipe with some suitable paper on hand it has not missed a beat. Obsoviosly phones do not like the water pressure with deeper water.
My iMac has bit the dust and the apple store replaced the hard drive on Saturday. On Sunday the same issue occurred so back to the not so genius centre waiting for further diagnosis.
Hope all going well.
Feeling a bit better. Stronger drugs are helping with the side effects. Probably turning me into a woman as well! Who knows. Fix one thing and create another issue.
Well, you know, being a woman is not bad at all. Ask the insider! Sounds like she had a lot of fun in her “undies”! Pity the phone was in the water – Siena could have taken a nice photo!
You sound better – even before the last reply. That’s good. Keep it up!
