Cellphone withdrawal symptoms

I've been surviving (barely) for the last few days ever since I lent my cellphone to my parents. They're in Vegas, and they need a cellphone. I couldn't get them a prepaid phone in time, so I gave them mine and got a prepaid phone for them, which I'm using now.

The problem here is that I can't forward calls from my old cell to my new cell, and therein lies the problem. I'm missing out on phone calls, I'm missing my address book, I'm missing the ability to make calls without worrying how much it's going to cost me, and I really really miss just having that comforting feeling of having MY phone in my pocket. Not just any phone, but MY phone. Without my phone, I feel absolutely naked.

The cellphone has become an indispensable part of my life, much like food, water, email, and video games (ok, maybe not). I always knew it was important, but now I know how bad it really sucks not to have my phone around.
