Welcome to the 21st Century

That's right, Ladies and Gentlemen, Amanda has become a thoroughly modern woman. She now owns a cell phone! Yippee!


Here she is in all her beauty

My in-laws offered to stick me on their family plan, again; my husband has been begging me to get a cell phone for months, if not years; and I've had a few fun nights of driving around lost in the rain; so the timing was finally right and I gave in. I'm not looking forward to being available 24/7 but when I cancel my land line at home I'll be saving a good $15-$20 a month so that's exciting. We're trying to port our number over too so it shouldn't be too much of an inconvenience. After I get over the inconvenience of trying to figure out how to use the thing, I mean. Don't worry, Keith is test driving it for me, and once he has all of the gadgets figured out I may get a chance to look at it. The guy at the store sold me this one because it has the least features and holds up the best to liquid damage (aka saliva). Seriously, that was the sales pitch. I guess he could see I needed a simple, sturdy phone, what with the crazy kids running around and the pregnant belly sticking out a mile. We'll see how it goes.

  1. Traitor! Okay, I'll admit, there are definitely perks. Let me know what the phone number is so I can track you down when you're napping and forgot to turn off the ringer!

  2. They are annoying for sure, but handy in an emergency. That's the only reason we have our cell phone.

  3. wow. I am impressed. Amanada has a cell phone. What has this world come to? In fact, we just re-added the second phone to our plan, since we were in Canada, we just had one. Two cell phones, no land line. I guess it works.
