I ordered an iPhone last week. It's coming in tomorrow. To go with the major theme in my life of mistiming/good old fashioned bad luck, (see Monday's post about having to jump start my car) my blackberry has reset itself.
I was fooling around with it, and for some God awful reason, it froze while updating an app. Why I felt the need to upgrade an app the day before I was trade it in, I do not know. Maybe the little update arrow was annoying me, and maybe it was making my phone run a little bit slow. Whatever the case, I clicked download.
About 5 minutes later, the program froze, I took the battery out of my phone, and I got locked out of the device. I typed in the password once; fail. Twice; fail. I began typing the password very slowly and very carefully, but for some reason my Blackberry had changed my password. I never, ever had changed it.
11 failed attempts and 90 minutes on the phone with customer service later, my phone reset itself and I lost just about everything that was on it. Luckily I was smart enough to remove the sim card so I was at least able to save my pics, videos and some other small things. I had to redo my entire phone list via face book and email.
The irony is, my iPhone was coming in the next day and they were going transfer all my data. Again, ironically, what took most people I have spoken to 15 minutes to get their info transfered, took me 2 1/2 god damn hours. I told my hot friend who I was with when I had to "jump start" my car this, and she responds with "Only you." hahah Indeed hot friend, indeed.
