I just went through twice, and read off all my contacts (sometimes things get missed on the first few go 'rounds) and it's not there. Want to know what else isn't there? Half of my contacts.

I don't like this ride, and I very much would like to get off now.

I'm going to write my own phone book now that I know contacts can just poof. All future texts will be responded to like: New fone, who dis? The list can recreate itself from there.
Yeah. I'm somewhere between screaming in anger, crying in frustration, laughing at the ridiculousness of it all, and doing the finger-lip-flap thing because I am finally losing the last bit of my mind mush. There's not even an emoji to show it.
