RQS came up earlier than usual this weekend, and I was presenting as a male for a change. Given that we needed a change of pace, I suggested that we go to Hemlock Hill Farm and pick up some freshly butchered meat. (When was the last time you went into a traditional butcher shop? Other than this place, I haven't been to a butcher shop in ages. But I digress....
Given that my phone was working perfectly when I picked her up, I figured that this would be a weekend where everything would be working correctly. G**, I was wrong about that! I had Pandora on in the background while driving to the farm, and shut it off before we entered the building. RQS salivated at how good the meat looked, but I was not going to buy Porterhouse steaks for $28/lb. Instead, I chose to buy the more affordable pork chops for dinner, and she bought some lamb chops to eat at home. When I got back to the car, I found out that my phone was bricked. AARGH!
After we got home, I figured that I'd try a few tricks to get the phone working, but to no avail. Instead, I decided to open up my bankroll and buy a new phone. Thank G** for Google Backup! Most of my apps and data was restored to the new phone with few glitches.
On the whole, this day was better than I made it sound. RQS and I firmed up plans for one shore excursion, and we still were able to have an enjoyable and tasty dinner....
