About a week after I bought my Sidekick, Jesse and I hung out for one of the first times, and he told me that he would bet me $100 that I'd break it within six months. Well, mister, it's been two whole years! I've not lost it nor had it repaired in any way.
I went into the Apple store yesterday on the exact day my t-mobile contract expired, ported my telephone number, and walked out with my shiny new toy! I've already got a few apps downloaded, but if anyone has more suggestions - please enlighten me in the comments!
And so a new era is born; the grainy and sometimes green-ness of the Sidekick photo is out, and the iPhone photo is IN! Not that I have one to share right now. BUT -this morning I was sitting at my desk trying to take a pic of me and my iPhone (my bestie, my requited love, etc.) when Keanu Robot jumped into my lap. The following picture is what ensued, starring my gigantic teeth, my iPhone, and Keanu looking like a disheveled, crotchety old man-cat.
once again, welcome to the iphone party. i had never lost a phone in all my life till last week and it was OF COURSE my fancy effing iphone. they are not a fun thing to replace, but really, its not like you can go back.

all i can think of for now, but let me know if you find any good ones. i'm still trying to get things back to normal after last week's loss...
Bah! Jealous! I am doing the exact same thing, waiting til the contract expires, but that's not til November! I don't normally overly covet material possessions (I usually save that kind of desperation for food), but every time I see an iPhone my brain screams, "Me want!"

i think i need to jump on the iphone bandwagon too. the only thing that is stopping me is my lovely, cheap $50 cell bill. iphone contracts are so expensive! i'm sure once i get a couple roomies i'll have more cash and i'll cave.
ReplyDeleteYESS that is very exciting.
ReplyDeleteAlso, adorable picture!!
you already know my app suggestion ;)
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh! Your kittens are turning into cats!!
ReplyDeletei am slow on the uptake when it comes to technology. i'm seriously slacking. congrats on the new phone.
ReplyDeleteAng - thanks for all the app suggests - I definitely downloaded a few of them last night, still making my way! Wish I could just not work and download apps all day, ha.
ReplyDeleteEmily - OHHHH yes! I was kind of pissed when Jesse got his iPhone and my phone was immediately outdated in mere months. But be patient - so worth it!
Beth - Thanks, woman! I'm obviously still working my way through each app...haha. Love AroundMe though! LOVE IT!
Kristen - haha, thanks! Yeah, the iPhone was definitely worth the wait.
El Adam - he is infinitely lovable :)
Jamie - weee! I'm still working through all the suggestions, and I'm STOKED! YES! Thanks!
Sarah - yeah, it's definitely more expensive, but only $30 more from my last contract per month. It's already worth it :)
Liz - thanks!!
Christy - HAHAHAHA ::sounds::
Kyla Bea - Yes, yes they are. It's kind of sad but also AWESOME.
Be One - thanks!!
I am also waiting out the t-mobile contract. SUCKAGE!!!!
