The Bitch is Back

I've been totally out of the blog mode for the last few weeks. My life is seriously insane. I just need to get into a routine and things will be cool again.

The original title of this post was supposed to be "Fuck My Fucking Cellphone". My beautiful, nice, low key cellphone died a few months ago. I replaced it not knowing that I could keep my old number.

It's been chaos ever since. This new rogue phone of mine has a terrible number that I just can't embrace. I'm an 8 girl. I've always been an 8 girl and this new phone number is a friggin tribute to the number 7.

7 is just so nowhere with me. I refuse to memorize this new number. It's like I'm dating down with this number and I just don't want to invest the time.

But I'm not dating down. It's more like I have an arranged marriage with this new phone number and there is no getting out of it. I have a bloody mental block against my cellphone number! Insane.

And to boot, my new phone can take photos (who cares) but it has NO icon to tell me when I have messages SO I never check my messages until it is toooooo late. Friends look at me oddly because I never refer to their calls. One of my closest friends lives in L.A. The phone plays a critical part in our relationship. He just told me I could basically F Off for not returning his calls in the last two months.

This is NOT good.

Hey EVI,

THAT explains it ...
I left a couple of messages for you, completely wrapped up in my own little world and unaware of all the stuff that was going on in your life. I'm embarrassed ...

P.S. " ... unaware of all the stuff that was going on in your life"

Not the least of which were your cellphone problems.

WHAT? No icon about voicemail? WTF? That is lame.

I so know what you mean. I got my own cell phone before going to NYC - okay, I'm always eons behind the times. Anywho....for the life of me I can't remember my cell #. I let my hubby keep the old cell # - sweet thang that I am. ^-^

BTW, you're going to love the picture function once you try it....

Love both post titles but the cell phone title was my favorite.

As I keep having to take my battery out and blow on it to get my cell phone to work I can relate to the original title. But no icon? That defies logic.

This is a great excuse for me. Now I can say, my God, I've been trying and trying that darn cell of yours. It has nothing to do with me being a bad friend, nope, nothing at all.

PS, you are so not a 7 girl. I'm a 9 gal myself

Hope all is well EVI
