Holy Crap! Call 911!! I Lost My Contacts!!!

Laugh if you want, but, I seriously sat and cried today....because of a stupid cell phone.
I'll admit, my IPhone is like my lifeline. Literally. I don't know any phone numbers. You're a name/contact, people. That's why God invented the IPhone. For convenience and to cut down on the amount of post-it notes I have hung up!
I got my new IPhone 4 a few months ago after the cat that adopted us pulled mine off of the table and shattered the screen. I'm not gonna lie.I'm not good at preventative maintenance, routine maintenance or any other kind of maintenance.  Only when it comes to my toenails.
When I got the IPhone 4, I didn't log into itunes and do the crap you're supposed to do. My bad. So, this morning, I realized that I never put all of my music on this phone. I thought you just plug in the phone to the computer, hit a button and ta-DA!! No.... oh HELL NO! I apparently hit the, "restore to factory settings" button. And it put all the shit from my IPhone 3 onto this phone. Which, I also didn't realize the last time I backed up/updated that phone was in September 2011.
I lost all of my new contacts, pictures, my notepad with ALL of my log in/passwords to EVERYTHING, Angry Birds.... it's all gone. Now, the pièce de ré·sis·tance, I apparently, soon after getting divorced, changed my Itunes info and passwords. ARE YOU SERIOUS????? I've spent well over 2 hours total on the phone with the APPLE people and basically, I'M SCREWED!!! I've gotten all my passwords and lo gins taken care of but my pictures..... never to be seen again.
I clocked out of work, sat and cried and then I added Icloud to my phone so there is NO WAY I can do this again. I was seriously lost for several hours today. I had to find Darren's phone bill so I could get his number off of it and call him. 
I don't know about the rest of you, but I use my IPhone CONSTANTLY! It's my phone, laptop, map, gaming device, notepad, newspaper.... IT'S MY EVERYTHING!!!!!! So you'll understand why I was so upset. 
Today was very traumatizing and frustrating. My phone is still not 100% up and running but at least I can make phone calls.  I'm just pissed that my pics are gone. Dammit. I hope I can sleep tonight. This really is devastating.
Well, nothing that a bowl of Lucky Charms and Modern Family on TV can't cure.
