Newsflash

Sister Christer got a MyTouch. The tmobile version of iphones. My life has been deeply enriched one app at a time. Mainly just having gmail access and visual voicemail to make my life of screening calls THAT MUCH EASIER.

And also because I haven't had a new phone since 2005. and my old phone could call and sometimes text but within the past week decided to go to 'whisper' mode permanently. So this new one is impressing me right and left.

Two Downfalls:
It is a touch screen. NOT ACTIVATED BY TOUCH...but by heat. Let's keep in mind I have Raynaud's syndrome/disease/phenomenon and have ice cold hands 100% of the time.

Also, it was an unplanned purchase. I went in to get a free phone and came out with a 30% increase to my monthly tmobile bill. I did not want a red or green flip phone and aside from those two, my options were limited in the 'free' dept. So I said, if I have to pay something, I might as well get the best they got.

Go big or go home. I did both. I went big, then I went home. It took awhile though because I had to wait for a 14 year old named Reagan to whine to her mom about she allllways gets the cool phones and it's not fair. Then the mom made Reagan call her dad and ask for child support money to help pay the monthly bill. The whole thing was hard to watch.

Which is another reason why I think Matt at tmobile would consider me his dream customer. Easily persuaded. Impatient. and a self learner. He did try to get me logged into Facebook before I left but my ice cold fingers and the fact he didn't tell me the sideways trick made it a very frusterating thing for both of us.

I'm dedicating my lunch money to paying my newly increased phone bill. So far I'm on a streak of 3 days in a row of bringing a lunch. But technically, I just stocked up on Lean Cuisines when I was freaking out about the deals at Rainbow last week and probably only saved myself $1.50 each day.

So I am officially putting that $4.50 towards my phone bill.
