On the same day that we went and stuffed our faces at Girl and the Goat, I also, finally, got my grubby mitts on an iphone 4.
This moment had been a long time coming. I wanted an iphone the minute they came out however many years ago. But when i went to go out and be a big girl and get my own phone plan, the told me how much it was going to cost per month. So I slinked back to my crappy LG phone and figured it was only a matter of time before Verizon jumped aboard this Apple-licious crazy train.
That's the thing about time though - it can move so slowly. And then when it came out for Verizon we had to have the epic battle of, "We waited so long, why not just wait for the iphone 5 to come out??"
My patience, while epic, could not wait past Dad getting a new droid. I thought we were in the crappy phone club together, Dad. So once he was out of the club it was only a matter of time before I followed him.
And its been about two weeks now and they've been two of the happiest weeks of my life. Boyfriend thinks he has found some sort of magical key to my happiness. A new cellphone, apparently, does the trick.
The one major downside? I cannot fathom ever reading another book ever again. Why would I read a book when I have the whole world in a convienent palm-sized device? I figure I give myself one more week of playing, but then I need to start limiting the angry birds and the words with friends so that I can spend some time with words on pages.
But then the future phone chimes and beeps and tweets and sings and I find myself digging in my bag for it wanting to know why its making noise. Its like a really adorable, smart, useful baby full of clever applications.
Anyway - there are many reasons I've been a blogging failure lately, and this is totally one of them. Future phone for life.
