Trouble Actually Comes in Sets of 4

You know what it's like when you finally have a long weekend AND THEN YOU GET SICK ON FRIDAY! Except it's not me that's sick... it's my phone and my life. D:

First, yesterday my phone stopped charging.  After a long day of going to different phone stores and trying different chargers, I thought I had it fixed, only to realize that even though the phone was showing that it was plugged in and 'charging' the battery level not only didn't increase, it actually continue to decrease. 

Secondly, I tried to find my old phone to use while I'm trying to figure out how to get the phone (Xperia X10) fixed.  Would you believe it?  Stupid warranty only covers like 1 year and like clockwork, the phone dies after 1 year and a week or two.  I found my old phone (my mom had borrowed it), almost fully charged (good) but then my mom couldn't find the charger she used when she borrowed it!  So now I have two phones running out of batteries and nothing with which to charge them. 

Thirdly, another stroke of luck is that my sister uses the same phone charger as my old phone.  I tried to charge my phone with it BUT THEN IT DIDN'T WORK TOO.  Somehow my sister rigged it and ended up getting the phone to charge (thank you God for sisters).  But now I have to go to the Rogers store to get my phone fixed and it isn't covered under warranty :( .  I just got this weekend off... and now I have to spend the weekend getting my phone fixed.  I also don't really have the money to get it fixed D: .  I suppose luckily I'm starting my new job on Monday, hopefully the money comes through really really soon. 

Lastly, Yak just charged me $150 because I "didn't return the modem" after I stopped using their service when I moved out of Waterloo.  I actually mailed it in exactly like they told me to and I used registered mail.  I checked CanadaPost about 2-3 days after I mailed it and it said "Successfully received".  I thought everything was A-OK until I saw the bill.  Now they need to know some piece of information to fix this but the information is on my laptop that my mom borrowed.  She walked out the door just as I realized I needed that information.

With that said, I don't wanna say "FML" because in actuality, I do have a phone and internet to use and another laptop with which to vent my frustrations and I'm very very blessed.  I know everything I wrote here is just a "First World Problem" but it still very upsetting. 

Well, time to make the most of my weekend.  Maybe I'll go watch Johnny English :)
