a title without the word technology in it

No scenario could be conceived that would shadow over my experience without technology as being the worst thing ever. Only the most atrocious occurrence happened to me the other day; a virus caused my phone to not accept my charger. I have never felt closer to my relatives in the holocaust, whom had to hand all their gold to the nazis, than I did when I had to return my GalaxyS Epic to the blue shirted employee at Best Buy; the drive home never made me feel more segregated from everything. I was passing other people chatting on their phones in their cars and on the streets, I couldn't help but notice the ecology and activity around me-it was everywhere. I was being ostracized. I got home and finished all my homework in like 20 minutes because I had no cell phone to entertain me; upon completion of all my scholastic and chore related duties I found myself bored out of my mind. After taking a nap and mastering the piano-along with juggling and salsa dancing-I was bored out of my mind. My mind was racing just trying to conjure up every current event and every tweet that was happening without my participation; so many people out there were trying to contact my cell phone, not knowing that was in the hands of some faceless employee in the huge network of Samsung repair sites. I was so far behind the rest of the world that this point that I knew It would take me weeks to squeeze back into the social norm. I finally received my recovering baby 2 days afterwards, but sadly I am still not the same person than I was before this catastrophe ensued.
The earlier anecdote is a brief summary of the day that my once beloved technology left me a martyr.
This is how technology has hurt/inconvenienced me.
true story..The end
