Do I need a cell phone?
Dec. 7th, 2014 03:34 pmNo, really, do I?
I had one before, in the long ago days of T9 and flip phones (and several large, unruly models before that, all the way back to the one that came in its own purse, but I digress) but people kept calling me and saying stuff and I was like UGH. Also, since I live in the land of cell phone gouging, I had pay-as-you-go, which really meant pay and pay and pay and then pay more.
On one hand, I see the appeal of being able to take a picture of a thing and send that picture of a thing to someone immediately so I can see if I should buy it for them/see a doctor immediately/beat the thing soundly with a large stick. Also, I'm only online about 18 hours a day right now, so more connectivity would assure I had no time at all to ponder the meaninglessness of my existence, which, you know, super handy.
On the other hand, people will call/text and say stuff. Or worse, they won't.
Opinions? Ideas? Horror stories? Pictures of things that need stick-hitting?
Also, yesterday I made lemon curd. It's unutterably delicious.
