Well ... the good news is that NE let me borrow his GPS unit so I could get to the after work school open house events Monday and Tuesday.
Also good news was that NE hadn't given me back the phone I'd let him use - so it wasn't thrown away by me.
Bad news is that my phone is still missing. 
Also bad news was that NE's phone was still on his account, so without Customer Service being open, there was no way to put it on my account.
Oh well. With NE's GPS unit I at least was able to navigate to the school tonight, and will be able to tomorrow again. I just don't have cell service.
The officer who comes by every other week came by today, and I told him about my phone. He told me about an online reporting thing for this kind of stuff. So I've filled it out, and now will see if anything comes of it.

The event tonight was mostly boring, but it did get busy at some points. Did more info giving than actual selling of passes though. (double checked every one to make sure I didn't make ANY mistakes!)
I stopped at a grocery store near the school (SuperSaver) and bought something called Nibblers - a cheese pack. It was pretty good actually. (I had eaten half a bagel at 3pm. but was still hungry, and knew I wouldn't eat again til 8:30 ...)

Found out today that the mom of one of my best friends passed away today. She lived in Duluth, and her memorial service will be sometime next week. I'm debating on going possibly. First I need to find out when it'll be ... then figure out if I can make it work or not.
It'd be a bit of a long road trip.

Not much else to say I guess.
Phone update, etc.
