Stolen iPhone and new iPhone

on the 17th, I lift my iPhone 4s on the bus without knowing it. I only found after I stepped into the mall and reached for it anf found it gone. After cursing at myself for a few second. I went looking for it. No lock! After walking around the mall pissed I got on the Blue Line, and asked the driver to check and see if anyone turned in a iPhone. No did. so the next went to Verizon and bought a new one $299.99, on Dad’s bill. and wiped the old one so the damn theft gets a free iPhone. Isn’t that great? It really pisses me off!

Weird stuff

I talked with my Oculist’s office yesterday and asked how my Prosthesis was going. The person answered their working on it. When I asked about  if I had to go into the office once its done she said “It’s going to be shipped to you”. Also directions will be sent with it, which aren’t in large print for someone who’s blind / low vision. 

Other then that’s it folks.

When we went out to dinner at sonny’s BBQ, we met another dog, it was a Doberman I was told.  We were at about to go into the restaurant  the other dog  wearing a backpack came out and Franklin g ot excited  and play bowed to the other dog and the dog barked at Franklin. the little boy  with the dog and parents. The little boy around I bet 5 to 7 kind of freaked out and cried abit. the mother hold to pull the dog to the side and hold it there. Franklin started at the dog as we went into the place.

new toys

Bought a digital camera today by Kodak for cheap.

$69.99
+ $4.90 tax
total = $74.89

Uses double A batteries, which I hate. But I have rechargeable batteries  on hand if I need them.
