When it rains, it pours!

So you know how I said I have bad "days?" Well... this time I had two of them, which were compounded by the horrible heat & humidity these past few days. Yesterday was miserable, and to top off the misery, I lost my cell phone.

Now, I'm one of those anal people who still has hard copy of their "contact list" (actually it's in an excel file and I print a new one every year-ish) because I don't want to end up like those people who lose everyone's phone numbers and can't contact anyone. I also know my family's cell phone numbers by heart, and a few close friends (ex-boyfriend, roommate, etc.) so that I always have someone nearby to call when I'm in trouble and don't have my phone or contact list. Well, this year has been really busy and I haven't updated my address book since last summer. So anyone I've met in the past year, I couldn't contact. I'm also up at school for the summer, and haven't memorized anyone's numbers around here. Worse, it just so happens that everyone staying up at school right now I've met in this past year... so I was not only without a cell phone, but without a Plan B AND a Plan C!

However, around 9pm last night, my luck changed. The lady behind the counter at Subway said, "Heads or Tails?" I always go with heads, and it paid off. I got my meal for free! Then today, ironically, it started pouring as I was jogging back to my apartment (I was thinking about this and the previous blog "when it rains, it pours," and as soon as the rain started, I knew my day would be different). We really needed the rain, and now it's not so humid anymore! Even more lucky, someone found my lost cell phone in the grass just before the rain hit!!! I'm SO pumped right now!
