Of Cell Phones and Toilets

Posted on 20:52 by Unknown
This ones for Baloney. Just so she knows she's not the only one.

I won't get into the gory details, but I will say that my cell phone died in a toilet accident involving Luke.


And that it was ugly.


And that it required an extraction that in the end, didn't really matter.


The phone went to pot, so to speak.

The miraculous ending to my tale of poo, I mean woe....
is that it was the perfect opportunity to get a new phone. (Amazingly, my contract for my old phone was up too - the stars aligned!)

I have resisted. I have proudly carried around my Sony slider phone, telling myself that I didn't HAVE to have the iphone. I didn't NEED the iphone.

An iphone would not complete me. (harumph!!)


Weirdly, I did the same thing with capri pants. Back about 10 years ago, when the fashion came back in, I thought... I'm not giving into that! I don't have to wear THOSE to fit in.
There must be a bit of a noncomformist ghoul lurking in me. I think I was the last person to give in to the fashion, but give I did. Thank the fashion Gods above. That's about all I wear now - some kind of cropped pant.

Well, you've guesssed it by now. I got the iphone. I was nervous, but my friend Lori took the plunge with me. I was thankful to have a friend who was going through the same iphone growing pains that I was.

And now, (brace yourselves) I tell you how truly complete I feel.

Not in the shallow way, like please see me hold my iphone. See me dial my iphone. See me talk on my iphone. Look at my signature: sent from my iphone.


But in an organizational, I have got-it-all-together kind of way.

Ok, I'll never have it all together, obviously, if I dropped my iphone into a pot of poo.

But wow, the myth of the iphone is no myth at all.


It is fantastic.

I have converted from a paper calendar to my iphone calendar.
Love it.

I have a camera with me at any given moment.
Fabulous.

The email.

he texting.

The GPS.

The music.
The way it stores your contacts.

The ease of the touchscreen.
The apps.

The APPS!!!

They are so creative and very useful.
I have the entire Bible on my phone.
I can pull up any version of any verse any time I need to.


No, the iphone is not overrated. It's genius.

Now if I can just keep from dropping it in the toilet.
