Because everything I own is crap.

As you may or may not know, I've been essentially sans phone the last few days, conserving the last few droplets of battery juice as if I had to make it last me the rest of my life. Charging pod came in today, and my phone now sits happily, reinvigorated with life-sustaining lithium or whatever they are putting in batteries these days.

But it almost didn't quite end so well.  A few months ago, I bought a long-life battery for my phone.  Long-life = thicker battery, and thicker battery = different battery cover to accommodate it.

Naturally, when I placed the phone on the charging pod and nothing was happening, I was slightly furious.  "Yeah, that's about f***ing right," I thought to myself.

Fortunately, removal of battery cover was all it took for the phone to sit properly on its charging contacts.  We are both satiated.
