When there are important things going on in your life, and communication for such events are done through your iPhone… don’t lose it.  The day we attended an inspection for our new house, I lost my phone. The night before I remembered seeing the 20% battery life warning, so I had a feeling that the GPS iPhone tracking app may not be an option. I was right.

That night, I was made sure to keep Google Latitude open on my MacBook, it was a smart choice. Suddenly there I was, about a half block away (no I wasn’t, I was here, on this couch, with my MacBook), or so Google says.  I walk Milo that was sometimes, so I went to where I thought it was. I then narrowed it down to 2 houses, and knocked on door number 1. I am sure I was very creepy, and I was a little embarrassed. They didn’t seem to believe me that technology told me where my phone was.  They seemed to think I was follow one of those new age religions and the God ‘Google’ wanted me to find the Holy Cell Phone.

I moved on, walked up to door #2 and knocked.  Jackpot.  These people were more shocked than anything.  They decided they would charge the phone (it’s great that they use the same cable as iPods), and see if they could retrieve my information off the phone when there was enough power. Too bad I beat them to the punch. We laughed about it, and agreed that its a little creepy (especially when someone shows up you had never met, nor contacted, shows up knowing too much), and cool at the same time.

The advice I have for you, when you bend over to pick up dog shit, make sure your iPhone doesn’t fall our of your packet.

The end, I have my iPhone, and I probably will never lose it again.
