iPhoneography

It’s official. I’m a dork. I was all excited to have the geniuses at the Apple Genius Bar fix my iPhone camera yesterday. So I hand my iPhone to the genius guy and tell him my camera doesn’t work. He looks at it, says hmmmm, and tells me he’s going to the back to take a look. Genius guy comes back a couple minutes later and says “the good news is that the iPhone still works, but there’s been some water damage causing the camera to fail.” I politely inform him that I didn’t recall the iPhone ever getting wet except for maybe some rain. He said the water line had a brownish color. Dammit! The hazards of coffee in the car caught up to me. Again. I sometimes put my iPhone in the cup holder next to the coffee. Dammit! Genius guy said I could replace the iPhone for $200. That’s a very expensive cup of coffee. So, I thanked Genius guy (who was a really cool guy) and left.

Not wanting to miss out on all of the iPhone photography fun – I decided to pull out my twice-dropped-badly-cracked original iPhone and use it as my iPhone camera. Problem solved. Here are a couple iPhone clicks from this morning.

Our shy cat Tyler covers his junk (or should I say unjunk) so he doesn’t end up as a centerfold on some kitty porn site.

Our doorbell button broke and when the wind blows it actually rings the doorbell. Go figure. Since I haven’t fixed it yet and the noise drives my son Zak crazy – he took matters into his own hands and silenced doorbell man. Good thinkin’ Zak.
