Oh the irony

[otherearths_outthere]

My cell phone is being bratty. I can get mail, I can go anywhere on the internet, but I can’t make a phone call, or more importantly text.
The irony is back when cells were becoming accessible, I would loudly proclaim that I would be the last person on the planet to get a cellphone.
Yeah.
When the iPhone commercials debuted , I wanted one so bad, but I realized my hypocrisy. My youngest son said, “just think of it as a computer that you can make phone calls on.’’

Well!
I soon after became the first member of my family to own the newest, latest, greatest tech. 😳

And seriously, I rarely use it as a phone. I have less than 20 contacts on it.

Yeah, I don't even know what's the point of me calling my smartphone a phone. I doubt that I make an actual phone call more than four or five times in a year, and I let all incoming calls go directly to "missed" or "voicemail" as the case may be. I have the ringer on mute so I don't even pay attention to an incoming call while it's happening. (And right now I'm using said smartphone to write this comment.)

Ha! A person after my own heart. I rarely have my ringer on either. My dad wanted me to have it on all the time. His favorite thing was to ask me was, “what if someone dies!?”

“Well, they’ll still be dead in the morning!!”
