New phone, new freedom

Yesterday I think I had a breakthrough in my approach to things here. I have been waiting all week for my TN manager to help me get a new phone and when he didn´t show like we planned yesterday afternoon I had one of those perfect cartoon character moments where this giant lightbulb appeared over my head. Why the hell did I need help? I know how to say "I need a phone" and "I want that one" and most of the other things I´d need to say. I knew where I needed to go and exactly what I wanted. I had been allowing myself to fall into the bad habit of dependency.

So, I made the conscious decision to stop the cycle and go and get myself a new phone. Which I did.
