Haircut and grocery shopping accomplished! I needed flour and sugar, which were both on sale, but only in 5lb. bags. So I really had too much stuff to carry, to the extent that when I was trying to open the front door of my building, a guy walking by asked if I needed any help! Which is nice, but no.
Tell me more good stuff about me.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
It must be haircut day! I am sitting in the hair salon with goop in my hair.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
So, am I correct that my (US) Android phone will not work at all in the UK?
My friend Katie says we can take our old cell phones that didn't use SIM cards, purchase SIM cards there, put them in the phones, and buy like a month of service. Is that right?

If your current phone doesn't have a SIM card, I don't know how/where you'd put one in. My T-Mobile phone has one (although I'm not sure how to get at it in my current phone, I realize).
ION, remember when I was looking for a coffee table a million years ago? Maybe this is the one! [link] I can't decide if I super-love the style, though.

If it doesn't use SIM cards, where would you put the SIM card? Something is off there.

Tom participated in haircut day too.
Zen, when we were in the UK last year, I used my cell phone there, a lot. Calls, texting, accessing email and other web stuff. You just gotta call your provider and get an international plan for the time you're there. I got an international data plan as well. It worked out great. No need to worry about swapping phones or Sim cards or the like, just get yourself an international plan.

Zenkitty, I had an Android when I went to the UK, and I called my provider who said it was not compatible. The newer versions may be different.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
So apparently there's an election next week. It's weird that I haven't heard anything about it. Anyway, I'm voting for Obama for president because alphabetically he comes before Romney.
Am in line for early voting. They're saying a two hour wait.

tommyrot, I've seen some of those lines on TV. I've never seen lines like that for voting, even on election day.
