phone

Encouraged by Mattias to call people I miss in the States, I started making phone calls through my Gizmo5 account Saturday night, and was able to reach a couple of people. The best was talking with Jenny, and smiling through tears while she made me laugh and we expressed feelings of missing each other.

Last night I couldn't get Gizmo5 to work, and it turns out it's because the site certificate is expired. I'm really irritated because I really wanted to get in touch with some people.

After unsuccessfully trying a few different fixes and disabling my firewall, I decided to give up for the time being.

I called best friend Paul instead. It's funny how out of sync we were on each other's lives since he's been so busy with studies and I've been through quite a rollercoaster.

I got to get faster at answering Gizmo calls, I keep missing them!

I have installed Gizmo5 and am using it to allow people to call my GrandCentral number and then it forwards the call to me. So far, not so good.

But if you have Gizmo5, you can call me for free from your computer, and I can call you for free. Another awesome advantage is that you can conference call with lots of friends for free if everyone has Gizmo5.

Please download Gizmo5 and call me. I'm so freaking lonely for you guys.

Well crap. I screwed up my contacts information on my phone and it's going to be easier to start over than it will be to fix it.

If you want me to be able to call, email, or otherwise reach you, could you resend the information you feel comfortable sending to carina@upsoclose.com? I will email you back with my new phone number!

Thanks!
