Ringtone Blues!

5 Cuppa coffeee [comments ]
Two things - One :  I set highly disturbing ringing tones for my cell phone.
Two - Am an expert at playing around with my cell with such ease that it melts within my fingers and SNAP -   it SLIPS out dropping with a thud , sometimes breaking into parts making me terrified and giving a mini heart attack only to rejoin with little scratches here and there - working condition almost perfect.

Third thing is I'm an idiot.Bloody idiot.

We were playing tennis on Nintendo Wii.My cell phone was in the right pocket of my tracks.It rang loudly
[ ringtone : The song Remember the Name by Mike Shinoda. ]
I cannot miss picking up my phone no matter what! And the ringtones I keep are the kind which make me restless if I let them carry on for few seconds.
So out of this hyper habit of mine - I pulled out my cell keeping it in my right hand along with the Wii remote.
The Wii remote has a strap attached to it which you've gotta wear around your wrist while playing.
The chance of the remote slipping out of hands is almost nil.
I don't even have to mention the chances of a cell phone dropping out  -- out of my hand.

The game was at its crux and I had to hit a shot.
What happened next is no suspense.I hit a shot ..and my cell displayed its Frisbee qualities:
flew , fell but unlike frisbee - it broke.
Thankfully it didn't  hit the TV !!

However I don't understand -

Why did I have to take out my cell ?
Couldn't I wait till the game ended ?
What's PAUSE meant for ?

Bloody hell.

All this even as am chanting : All Hail Nokia!

My cell is absolutely FINE.

Nokia Rocks!

Oh btw , Nintendo Wii is a super cool game! Scores less on graphics.Extremely good @ motion sense.

That doesn't mean I'm finding excuses to shun away from real sports.
Playing badminton and so so so loving it :)
