I gave it to my wife. She was up for a new phone and the HTC was too much for what I thought I needed. I don't text and I rarely get online. She may want to take it back for an iPhone as well. It seems to be a simpler interface.

Receptions so bad, I'm running through my router via wi-fi.

The iPhone wasn't your preference, if I recall. What made you go with that?

The week's caught up with me with a vengeance. Too much tension on top of too much to do, it's taking too much out of me. I'm fading fast. I can hear Simon's (a cat) high-pitched snore. He has the right idea.

Thanks for the distractions and company. This has been a rough week in terms of dark, personal anniversaries, making the diversion here especially welcome Friday night.

Take care, Miraclo. Glad you're back around.

Nope. It wasn't. I wanted to stay away from apple. When I bought the HTC I didn't take time to look around. I walked in, told the dude I needed a phone, he pointed me toward the HTC and I bought it. I was in the door and purchased the phone in around 5 minutes. No joke. Brought it home, messed with it for a while and just wasn't happy.

Today, after work, I went in and looked at all the phones. Samsung, LG, Palms and I just kept going back to the iPhone. Simpler. It's not the 4G one, it's the older version and ran me 50 bucks. Big step for me. Still won't text, but I can email like a mofo. I'm listening to Slacker Radio right now.

The important thing, Miraclo, is you made it through. Thanks for hanging around with us knuckleheads.

Catch you on the flip side.

And you're playing Angry Birds like a mad man.

Texting? What is this texting? I use HeyTell. Texting is so last year.

No Angry Birds. The damn kids that I play clix with, sadly, play that while playing clix. They don't even pay attention to what's happening on the board. I guess there is just too much of a generation gap.

You mean they don't stare out the shop window at the cheerleaders washing cars?

Well played. I don't think they'll ever get talked into it.

Oh, if there were only 2 of you.

Hmmmm....Angry Birds, Clix, or cheerleaders washing cars.....We should start a new poll thread with that.

That's what she said. (Sorry. Had to say it.)

Wait. What good would two of me be?

Cheerleaders playing clix couldn't pry these kids' concentration from Angry Birds.

How many times I've told her to keep quiet?

I don't know, help with unloading the groceries.

But two of me would necessitate buying even more groceries, which would likely defeat the purpose of the second me.

Naw. Survival of the fittest. One of you would have to take the crown.

Hmmmm.....I could sleep while he goes to work....

Speaking of sleeping. I gotta hit the rack. Chat at you later, rage. (And the other Ogres, too.)
