The last day pf preparations before Vici takes her bog trip to the USA and Costa Rica for a wedding for some chick I’m pretty sure she may not even know. Also, as a side note, the above image is in no way a metaphor for the chaos of the day, although it is certainly coincidental. It’s just not usual for people to pile trash like that here. Where are their cans?
Anyway, Vici went to some sketchy phone repair place (have I written about this part before? I’m already forgetting) and things simply spiraled from there. The initial visit was Friday, they absolutely gutted and bricked the thing by Monday (and asked for more money to fix the problems they caused), and finally gave up the device after making bae pay some minimum fee. I wasn’t there when her brother went in with her and threatened the bastards with law enforcement, but I know it was definitely an ugly situation. Which brings us to today, with the phone being handled by a new place (who wasn’t shy at all about commenting on wtf happened inside the phone at the first place). They called her in, and upon receiving the phone, she and I saw that the touch screen only worked when it wanted to, and it would just shut off randomly. Three hours later her mom bought her the new iphone. Must be nice!
She did definitely need something though, and Jutta (Vici’s mom) is a saint and we all know that. The rest of the day was spent setting the new phone up and freaking out when the icloud backup included over 150gb of photos trying to cram their way onto a 124gb device. The thing bricked itself in like three hours. So… some more freakouts and a factory reset later, her new phone works and her old phone is uploading all 64,000 pictures and videos into Google Photos, which she can then look at from her new device. What’s that? What about me? Hey, man, it may be my blog but it won’t always be about me. Tomorrow is a huge trip lasting basically a month for my girlfriend, so maybe just lay off? I worked and watched TV, just like you.
See you tomorrow for the send off.
