Thursday #103 – this Thursday I woke up to see an update
available on my phone. With too many
stupid apps and other crap, I sadly didn’t have the storage to download the
update so headed to work with my boring old iOS 6.
When I got home from work I plugged my iphone and ipad into
the computer and updated to the shiny new iOS 7. At first glance everything was pretty and
colourful and it wasn’t until weeks later I would discover a frustrating
problem with iMessages not sending and not notifying me that they were
failing. For this Thursday though it was
all just peachy keen.
I also managed to sell a Roosters jersey which I had come
into possession of in 2004-2005 and worn a few times in my Rooster fan
years. Having since converted to a fan
of no one in particular (I was going for Ricky Martin in the grand final a
couple of weeks later) I decided to capitalise on their minor premiership and
see how much I could get for a signed jersey which had always been way too big
for me anyway. Despite the fact that it
technically wasn’t mine, I was happy to profit from it and popped it on ebay a
week earlier. $255 later and I was
laughing…but laughing quietly so that The Dodgy Fundraiser didn’t hear and
suddenly want a cut from the jersey she “lent” me all those years ago.
A new operating system and a $255 profit all in one day –
not a bad Thursday by any means.
