Right, what happened

[openidwouldwork]

So, I'm a person who has close contact with all kinds of liquids... water, milk, mud, liquid manure, the works, so I have a waterproof mobile (and have dropped it into my bathtub when reading in the bath, as well as washing it with the dishes).

But.

It dropped out of my pocket on a campground in Sardinia and landed in a puddle, and whatever liquid that was, it fried it. Mobile dead.

YaY.

So, I'm on an Italian vaction island trying to find a place to buy a mobile (at a price that does not use up my entire travel budget). I managed (not a waterproof one though), but no fun.

Phone SIM is still working, ok.

Does anyone remember my google password to set up android?

Oh, and the apps... anyone remember the passwords? Same with dreamwidth, photo storage, all of it. No fun.

Anyway, this is what my blogging looked like the last 2 weeks:


catching up with the real ;) blogging now

Oy vey, what a pain in the ass, and on vacation too

[openidwouldwork]

Yeah... 'to set up xyz, transfer the data from your old phone!' ... nope.

[nverland]

What an awful mess. Hope you got everything back

[openidwouldwork]

Well the first days photos are gone, otherwise hope so as well!

[silvan_lady]

Oh no!

That's a nightmare!

I hope you were successful in getting everything restored on the new phone.

[openidwouldwork]

No way to recover the first photos, and still working to set up access to stuff that seriously needs two factor authentification, waiting for the mail to bring the paperwork.

no fun

[silvan_lady]

No fun at all!

Sorry to hear you have lost the photos. :-( I always used to worry I'd lose mine on holiday so I eventually set Dropbox to auto upload them and then I'd save them properly when I got home.
