Welcome to the 21st century…

We got new cell phones for Christmas – Mike picked them out for us.  The cell phone was supposed to be one of my Christmas presents, but he got one too, of course.  Oh, and by the way, I was told that the monthly fee has to come out of my allowance – it would seem like that’s not really a true gift, is it?  Not to mention that I never really asked for a new cell phone for Christmas…

Anyway, we went from our old cell phones that did nothing but make phone calls (and not very well, at that – we found that we rarely had a strong signal and messages would not be delivered until up to one week after they were sent) to these fancy new things that can’t really even be called ‘phones’ – they do make phone calls (at least I think they do – I’m still trying to figure out how to work the darned thing), but they also access the Internet, check our email, send photos and videos…they even give your current location and step-by-step directions to where you want to go.

Okay – I have to admit, I like my new phone…now if I can just figure out how to get my new phone number…
