I tend to awkwardly repeat myself when leaving voicemail unprepared because I can't find a way to end them gracefully. So it's usually, "yes, so anyways, what I'm trying to say is GOTO 10" and at some point equally awkwardly stop talking

Problem is, I caught it with my leg, and my phone was in my pocket and got smooshed a bit. I also have what is probably a thigh contusion. Worst part - the head had a defect, so it was scrap. Wouldn't have mattered had I dropped it.
Not a lot of actual damage, the screen is still intact, there is a tiny screen flare. But somehow the fucking speaker doesn't work any more. Everything else, so far as I can tell, works.
I have to take important calls all the time at work, and if I can't hear my phone (the vibrate on the LG G2 sucks nutsacks) I'm fucked.
I was planning on buying a new phone soon anyways, so I bought this baby:

64GB, Matte Gold (My case will be black, so I don't care about the color--the gold one was $50 off), Marshmallow loaded, no Verizon bloatware, 2 yr protection plan.
After tax, tag, and title: $657.67.
My last several phones have been Google Nexus models. I've been very happy with them, except for when dumbass me busted the screen.

They were spying on you. Or they were bored.

Not normal for them to shoot over this late, with afterburners on and all. Kinda spooky when they do things like that D:
Normally it's one or two just flying over pretty slow, compared to those two

I'm home safe and sound from surgery. It took 1.5 - 2 hours longer than expected because the stone was partially embedded about 3 inches down the ureter pipe and the ureter was swollen as a result. Doctor was able to zap and retrieve most of it, with the rest likely simply being able to be peed out due to the fresh new stent in place. I feel okay. A little sore and still pretty tired, but the 2+ hour long nap I just woke up from helped a lot.
