The doctors office called today. They told me they searched the office and exam rooms for my Kindle. It wasn't there. Like I didn't know this before I even asked them to look around.
Told Sweet Wife and she said, "Well, your birthday is just a few days away why don't you order a new one and I'll make it your gift." She's like that...sweet.
So, tonight I did order a new one. They've updated the Kindle Keyboard. Free anytime connectivity, 3G. Of course the price has been updated too. Seems I can reload the new one with all the books in my Amazon account, nice.
It'll be a nice 34th birthday gift....

Congrats! I love mine!
ReplyDeleteI loved my old one too...wish I knew it current location. Thanks, Keads.
DeleteYep, she's a keeper!
ReplyDeleteIndeed she is....thanks, my friend.
DeleteHAPPY BIRTHDAY SOON! Enjoy your Kindle and download a good book just for fun.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Swamp Dog. I must first download, again, all those lost on my old Kindle. And, thank you for the birthday wishes...
DeleteOooh. That stinks! Lucky for you that you've got such great "girls" in your life! ; )
ReplyDeleteYes, I do have some great women in my life, online and off...thanks, Sweet Lady.
DeleteWell, thank goodness you get your books back. If something comes through on your card, you would be covered for the loss. In the event something shows up and if you get hassled, email me. That happens to be a specialty of mine.
ReplyDeleteI will, my friend. They did take precautions.
DeleteHappy birthday to you! I have a 2nd generation Kindle, and my youngest received a new 3G model for Christmas with touchscreen - the keyboard appears on the screen when needed. That's kinda nice.
ReplyDeleteYes it is nice. I ordered the same but updated...3G. Wish it'd hurry up and get here..Thanks, my good friend.
Delete34?!?!?!?! i didn't think you were a day over 29, you handsome sod, you! (although some think you are a smartass - bahahahahah!)
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, dear sweet one. you know we all love you!
your friend,
kymber
I did lie...I'll admit it will be my 35th birthday. My son is 34.
DeleteCongrats on the new kindle and Happy Birthday to you :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, PISSED. Ah, younger by the year.
Delete34 LOL. Happy Birthday youngin :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, my friend....I did fudge a bit....
DeleteHappy Birthday early. I feel a bit of news on this one..;)
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the new toy.
Naw, just an average birthday...thanks, Rob.
DeleteHappy, happy birthday! Spend you very special day sitting on the porch and reading a favorite book on that new Kindle.
ReplyDelete(Don't know if I would ever get one though - I like the feel of a book in my hands).
I shall do whatever my wife suggest for her entertainment on my birthday, like I do each year. She's funny that way. I still read good 'ole paper books too, and shall never cease to do so. Thanks, Sweet Lady.
DeleteYou do know God will punish you for lying.
ReplyDeleteWhat lie? Me? No way would I lie....
DeleteHappy Birthday early, however many it is. Enjoy the new Kindle.
ReplyDeleteThanks, John and I will enjoy it...if it ever arrives.
DeleteSorry to hear about the Kindle, but thankfully celebrating your a year older means getting a new one - not sure if the tradeoff is worth it but as much as I love my Kindle, I can imagine its the same for you!
ReplyDeleteThe worst part of the whole thing is that these things are serialized with an ID that when they sync, amazon knows who has it, just like Apple/iTunes knows when an iphon/touch or ipad sync with their store. You'd think they would allow you to report it as stolen or lost, submit proof its yours and then they would de activate the thing from syncing with their store by anyone, rendering it useless unless they leave their ill gotten goods the way it was when they 'received it'
I did allow me to report it and did registered it stolen and it's been shut down...nothing more than a paperweight now. Thanks for kind comment and if you ever get your blog up and running I'll follow asap.
DeleteYou sure have done a lot of living in 34 years Hoss :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday!!
HankH
I know, worn out at 34...thank you very much, Hank.
Deleteglad to hear you'll be hooked up to your Kindle again! LOL Happy 34th birthday? WOW I guess I get to be in my 20s again! noooooo. Enjoy your new one and this time get you a bikers chain to attach to your belt loop like they do their wallets! just an idea LOL
ReplyDeleteThanks, Sweet Girl...chain idea, nah...to redneck for me...rope, sure.
DeleteHappy 34th(three carry the two) how old were you and sweet wife when you had little bit's father? ;)
ReplyDelete12, I think....thanks, Bubba.
DeleteHappy B day!! I thought that you were only in your twenty's?
ReplyDeleteAnd, I'll stick with books with paper pages. If need be, I can always use the pages for T P if I need to.
The Kindle on the other hand might be a bit harsh, and hard to use on your bum.
Hope that you have a great Birth Day my friend.
I like both, paper and Kindle...think about it 3,500 books in the palm of my hand. I'll never give up on paper. Thanks, my good friend.
DeleteThanks, my good friend.
