My cell phone is messed up. It's producing far more heat than is normal and won't hold a signal for more than a second or two. Off to the service center after work...hope I don't have to replace the thing, because that's an expense I don't want right now, not to mention having to transfer the numbers.

Boss man is MIA.
I've finished the ony task I had.
I'm caught up on email and LJ.
Since my cell phone is dead, I can't make calls -- the calls I'd be making are long distance, and i don't want to make those on the work phone for non-work calls.
Bored now!

ouch

1. Sprint declared my phone irretrievably dead. Since I have a contract with them, and being reachable/able to reach people is important to me, I replaced it. That's a bite out of my ConJose budget, though.
   
2. The Sprint store is in the same shopping center as Ikea. Ikea has good food at good prices -- I'm particularly fond of the gravad lax. (which is missing an umlaut or two, but I forget where they go.) I wasn't hungry quite yet when I finished with Sprint, so I decided to price computer desks for future reference before eating. Only to discover that the restaurant closes significantly earlier than the store.
   
3. So, still in a fishy mood, I head off to Niban for some tasty, reasonably priced sushi. And trip over a curb, resulting in a quarter-sized scrape on my knee (through my jeans, which luckily didn't tear) and a larger scrape on my elbow. Get Band-Aids from an employee there so I won't bleed all over the restaurant.
   
4. After a tasty plate of sushi, off to Target -- I don't have Band-Aids big enough. Get big fabric bandages and antiseptic/anesthetic spray, which claims "No sting". It lies.
   

So much for accomplishing any useful amount of housework tonight. Tomorrow, there's a Softweargirlz event, which I may just stick my head into before coming home to clean. Wednesday and Thursday are busy, too, which leaves me with next weekend to deal with this disaster area,.
