I suppose today's entry will be somewhat...different from the usual stuff. That is, my phone survived a rather unique and really rather disgusting event in its product lifespan. I was in the toilet and the phone decided to take a little walk out of my admittedly really shallow pocket. After slip sliding off my thigh, onto the floor, across the really well polished tiles, it took a nice smooth slide across porcelain right into the water. 10/10. Oh, and it was yellow water, thanks to yours truly.
After a brief moment of bemusement (that the phone was actually still working underwater) and horror (that the phone was actually still underwater), I had to reach a paw in to grab stinky out, flick the water off, then strip it down so that the battery wouldn't fry anything for good. Thankfully, it seemed to be mostly functional at that point, so I had high hopes that it'd power up just fine after a rest in my dry cabinet.
Of course, it did survive, with all functionality intact. Surprising, considering that it wasn't exactly marketed as a weatherproof phone. Beats the snot out of the E3s which didn't survive a washing, huh. Then again, this is something that I would not be particularly thrilled to retry. As a side note, no, the phone doesn't smell of pee and/or poo since it's been cleaned. Yeah. Cleaned. *sniffs* Eww.

Maybe the electrolyte dipping will enhance the working of the battery.
I believe it did. Urea power!
