First, a query to all charitable souls in possible positions of help:

Does anyone have an old Verizon-compatible cell phone that they no longer use? Mine broke in half, which I remorsefully related here a few days ago; as it turns out, my dad did not have it insured and my warranty won't cover it. I figured I would ask here before looking on eBay, because many of my friends are serious about communication and upgrade their phones, I'm sure, when possible. I do not have the money for anything new at retail value, and am looking then for something used and a in a smaller price range of $50ish or less (although "or less" is shamefully optimistic).

Anyway, this is a good place to say that if you have old cell phones of any kind, you should consider donating them to your local battered women shelter, because even if they are no longer connected to a wireless provider, they can still be used to dial 911.

So, I haven't the energy now for anything fancier than a good ol' Plus/Minus List (or Minus/Plus, in this case):

--- The broken phone, plus everything else that seems to happen just when its potential for screwing stuff up is at its highest.
-- Not hearing anything (yet) from the library job I so wanted.
-- The quality of the internet here.
-- The task of re-boxing every one of my possessions in this house (which means rummaging in the attic, my closet, the garage and two sheds).
- The YMCA is way too expensive to even consider, I think. Plus, it's not exactly convenient, distance-wise.
- Feeling kind of unattractive lately.
- A general but ever-present feeling of malaise.

+ My mom is trying to coax me out of my funk, which is sweet.
++ I got to see people I really enjoy this past weekend, and I'll see them again next weekend and the weekend after, as well.
++ I have that $55 in unclaimed pay to collect at some point, which is a little bit of awesome.
+++ My boyfriend is fucking amazing.
+++ If hot sex was money, I could stop looking for a job right now. Whew.

i think ray is actually getting a new phone with cingular this week and currently has a perfectly working verizon phone. it's like 2 years old and way ugly but i don't think it'd be that bad to use.
