I never had a case for my other phone and it was fine, but it seems like the Thing To Do for an iPhone.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I don't normally reply to emails that are clearly not meant for me (despite someone thinking that my email address is theirs), but I got one today about a 5-year-old soccer league, and it had dates for the team picture and whatnot, and I decided it would suck for the kid to miss the picture just because his/her parent gave out the wrong email address, so I replied. I hope they find the right parent.
(On the other hand, there is someone who may be missing all their dental appointments, because the confirmation email keeps coming to me.)

Wow. The coach already emailed me back and said thanks, and that she'd follow up with the parent. #winning

So, I got an iPhone! A 5S, because I am cheap as hell. So I need a case for it? Where do you get that? Just anywhere?
Places like TJ Maxx are good for older model covers.

Yeah, so, one Mr. Kevin Prinkle really deeply, fundamentally believes that the email address he signed up for with gmail is kprinkle. But it's not. And so I know all sorts of stuff about him. He's a coach. He's religious. He subscribes to this men's family leadership thing. I mean, he sounds like a stand-up guy. He just doesn't have the email address he thinks he does.

Oh, Kevin. Get your shit together.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Unsubscribe him from all that stuff and subscribe him to Gay Atheist Orgy Monthly.

I finally begged the guy who runs the men's group, please, please tell Mr. Prinkle this is not his address. It's a little hilarious because he subscribed to them, I unsubscribed, and then he subscribed again. You know, because he never got the email from them. Kevin, you're not getting any email! This is not your email address!
And, no it doesn't work to subscribe him to stuff, because it's MY email address!

WRT to the money thing and professional athletes, it could be a money thing. One of the fascinating things about the Stefan Fatsis book is realizing that mid tier and lower pro athletes aren't as well as off, especially in football and baseball, as you might think.

I love TJMaxx! Good one.
