An Unfortunate Incident III
Saturday, March 7, 2009
I lost another phone at a wink of an eye - not just one phone but two!
This afternoon at two o'clock, I arrived back to the office from a field work with a few cargoes stuffed at the back of the car. When I get down, I locked the car but left the rear door open so I can unload my cargoes. When I found out that my officemates are eating lunch late, I joined them as I was hungry too. Hunger must have distracted me but I was very sure that the doors of the car except the rear were locked. Timeframe was just split of seconds as I was eating hastily when I returned to the car and found out that my Asus V66 and Sony Ericsson K750i are gone. The doors were still locked so I wonder how did it happen. I realized the thief gained entry to the rear. Stupid me! Unfortunately, the Sony Ericsson K750i is my wife's Valentine's Day gift for me (read that here).
I called up my wife and confessed what had happened. She flared up and scolded me and hanged up the phone. Up until this point I'm writing this entry, I haven't had talked to her again, not just yet.
After the incident, I proceed to Alimall to buy another phone (any brand and model) for a budget of P1,500.00 only. I got a second hand Nokia 3120c for P1,400.00 only. Now that I got another phone, I hope my wife will forgive me. She's not easily upset but I could see how dissappointed she was about the incident.
Now, I still have to go to Sun Cellular in SM Megamall to get a replacement SIM pack. It's good that I subscribed to a postpaid plan so I could still recover my number. But it simply don't work with my prepaid Globe and Smart number (my Asus phone is dual SIM). I will never be able to recover those and my contacts will forever be gone. My Asus phone contains these numbers: +639167057550 Globe and +639186912288 preferred Smart number.
This is not the first time our couple lost our phones. Similar incidents were published from here: An Unfortunate Incident, An Unfortunate Incident II, Sentimental Values in this Fast-Moving World, and a few phone theft incidents that I wasn't able to blog about since there were no blogs yet during those times.
Meanwhile, I have to proceed now to the Sun Shop in SM Megamall.
By the way, the thief only took my two phones. My Polo sunglasses (that I used when driving) and wallet were spared. However, our office key was also taken as the keyholder looks like a phone case. Now, I might as well buy another set of padlocks.

I mourn the passing of your cellphone, Pareng Dodong. I have lost also many of them. I know you will also get better ones in the future. -

Dude, that sucks! You've got the worst luck when it comes to cell phones eh? I hope that your new phone sticks around longer and I hope that Jovy doesn't stay pissed off for too long. I'm pretty sure the thief will get their karma! -

It's bad enough that your cellphone was stolen, but also sad that your wife reprimanded you. Buy her a box of chocolate to appease her. -

Really sorry to hear that. I can imagine what your wife must have felt as well. Moral of the story: always lock ALL your car doors. :D
