Boo hoo!!!!
I drove my car over my Palm after it fell unseen out of my pocket.
It is cracked and warped, remarkably intact, but dead.
Waaahhhhhh!!!!!!!!
:(

Heheheheh :)
There is a bright side to everything no matter how terrible. Destroying my Palm has cast me adrift in time again and feels quite scary, but the cartoony image of me somehow running over my own hand cracked me up. :)

I should explain that "lost in time" thing.

All my life I have had an inability to see or plan time. I have great difficulty remembering appointments, or getting a perspective on recent events. It is like being permanently lost. When I got my first Palm all that suddenly changed. It was like getting hearing aids or glasses -- all the things I intellectually knew were there could suddenly be seen and manipulated. It was wonderful, and I had become very used to not having to worry about it anymore. Now I am suddenly back in that pea-soup fog and can't see anything once again. I hope I can earn enough money to get a Palm again soon.

Heh. I'm glad I could give you a laugh out of it. Sorry your Palm has gone to Palm Paradise (ok, is it just me or does that make it sound like electronics heaven is in Florida?). It sounds like it's something that really helps you keep your day to day life under control so I'm sure you'll find a way to get a new one sometime soon.

:) ...or a tropical island.
I gave my old Palm to my sister (everybody in my family has the same time-blindness). I don't think she really uses it though, so I might see if I can get it back for a while.
