Caffeine shot and retail therapy
Apr. 24th, 2003 03:03 pmFeeling considerably better now, after a wise and witty lunch in the Alliance with
glitzfrau (we didn't spend the entire time talking about our online entities either, I swear), complete with a pot of tea to wake me up. (I don't do caffeine generally.)
Afterwards we went to Carphone Warehouse, where I shelled out an inordinate sum in return for a Nokia 6310i, which I had to get because it was the only option with the correct form factor (see? I do jargon) for the car kit.
So my credit card is in shock, but I'm pleased, because with a bit of luck the new phone won't crash at random intervals not exceeding four hours, throw conniption fits and forget who it is whenever I look sharply at it, vary dull afternoons by derecognising the sim for no discernible reason other than primadonnaishness, or, in short, exhibit any of the little foibles that have grown so tediously familiar to me of late in dealing with its predecessor.
(Plus it's got a very sexy spec, which, as Glitz points out, is a thing to gladden my heart. We likes our gadgetry, we does.)
