Why you can't call me

[elizilla]

My phone battery is dead and somehow, with the traveling last weekend, I have misplaced my phone charger. Maybe tonight I will find it.

Will it take a micro USB cable? Or is it the funky Rotomola proprietary jack thingy? Point being, in theory you can charge it off your 'puter.

You know, if you got a new phone (with a keyboard for texting) you could also get one that takes a standard USB cable.

Eh, it's not a micro-USB, it's a mini-USB. Generic enough. I'm sure I have a half dozen of them in the box upstairs. And at least one car charger too. The only funky Rotomola proprietary thing is that it's gotta be one of the ones that has whatever the hell pins those are, jumpered - if I just plug in a USB-to-mini cable, to one of my older USB wall warts or car chargers, it doesn't work - but the newer ones do. Remember the teeny tiny adapter I showed you, that goes from mini to micro? That wall wart / cord / adapter assembly, is what I use to charge both my phone (mini) and my reader (micro). I took it to Marietta last weekend and now I can't find it. I haven't thoroughly gone through my luggage and tank bag yet, because I'm busy, lazy, and I don't wanna talk on the phone anyway. I'll hunt it up tomorrow, or go to the giant box-o-cables upstairs and pull out another one.

I couldn't find my hand lotion after a trip to Mom's. I looked for 2 days and gave up; figuring it was at her house. The next time I was at her house and couldn't find it, it turned out to be at the bottom of one of the (many) pockets on my airline-pilot-approved efficiency suitcase. DOH!
