I Finally Make a Shot

I suck at basketball. Can't hit the hoop. I suck at darts. No aim. I suck at pool. (see darts) Pretty much if it involves hand-eye coordination, it ain't gonna happen. Only due to my ADD and an unbeatable addiction have I become decent at HALO.
Why do I bring ths up? I broke yet another cell phone. How? Well, I'll tell you.
I'm kicked back on the couch, watching some movie, cell phone laying next to me, as I'm expecting call. I readjust the pillow and elbow my phone directly into my glass of water. Now, this was not a Big Gulp or Mc D's large-size. This was your standard, everyday, average glass. Plop. Dead phone.
I sit there for a second thinking, "There's no fucking way that just happened. I can't hit SHIT. Yet just managed to drown my cell phone in a damn glass of water." My roommate, having witnessed this is laughing his ass off repeating, "No way dude! No way dude!" Fuck me.

Epilogue: I was supposed to be overnighted a new phone (having finally learned my lesson killing several other cell phones and purchased the insurance). It's 4 days later...and I'm still limping along on my "it almost works" cell phone.
