I will try.
My cell phone takes pictures. My cell phone works as a phone.
My cell phone costs me money. My cell phone cannot access YouTube or email.
I called Comcast/Xfinity today.
The ladies I was transferred to were very nice. I could almost understand the second one.
After an hour-and-a-half of clicking this and that on my phone and rebooting, she told me to remove my "sim card" and reinsert it before we rebooted for the seventh or eighth time.
She forgot to tell me how delicate a sim card is.
It exploded as I tried to put it back in.
After fifteen minutes, I was able to find the parts on my floor.
I put it/them back in.
My cell phone takes pictures. My cell phone works as a phone.
My cell phone costs me money. My cell phone cannot access YouTube or email.
She said she would send me a new sim card.
I had quit drinking.
I think I am drunk.
I will not go anywhere tonight.
I will try not to damage any of my musical instruments.
How are you doing?

@TheHorse I wish something would make me feel old. I feel like I need to fight the world and it deserves it.

@crossbones27 If I were young I think I would have to live with this bullshit for longer than I can tolerate.

I want to ask questions but if you're drunk, I will refrain. I hope the new Sim card fixes your phone.
I'm very tired now and thinking about taking a nap. I hope you have a wonderful evening/night, pony.

@TheHorse You'll be lucky if they don't terminate your contract.

@DaddyEvil Yep. And more trouble when I request compensation from Xfinity for a cell phone that does not work.

My phone has disappeared again. I think it stayed behind at church when I left. The pastor will check tomorrow. And e mail me. Because obviously she cannot call me.

There is a reason I feel protective about you. LOL. Your helplessness is like that of Charlie Chaplin. LOL If it feels any better, I too don't know how to remove the sim card. But I have younger friends in cell phone shop. I just have to call them over, or walk to their shop. The entire episode would be just 15 minutes for me, including me changing clothes to go to the shop, and returning home and changing back into my home wear. LOL

Were you able to access other sites or was it just YouTube? Something tells me the SIM card has nothing to do with your issues.

@TheHorse just a feeling. Were you trying to access the web via data or WiFi, or both?

I feel your pain. I just spent a month talking to people I couldn't understand and jumping through hoops which resulted in nothing accomplished.

I think you just need to get romantically involved with a girl who runs a cell phone company.
