• Today, something very rare happened: I was late for work. Now, I know to most of you, that might not seem like such a big deal, but those of you that know me know that I  HATE  being late.  Turns out, due to last nights storms, there was a stop light that was out on Weber Road. This backed traffic up for  what seemed to be for-fucking-ever. The result was me being 10 minutes late for work. My boss was ok with it, because a lot of people were late due to various storm related reasons. Still she knows how crazy I am about being on time, so this gave her and others reason  make fun of me throughout the day about it. This was the first time I was late since my training class 2 years ago. Somebody pointed out to me that  if I had a cell phone, I could have called.

  Which brings me to my next topic. This has given me another reason to get a cell phone.This and many other reasons. Now, I just have to decide on a plan and a company. I mean, do I want to be taking pictures with my phone? Do I want a video phone, you know, just in case the need for video phone porn should arise? Am I going to be text messaging a lot? Please feel free to offer me any suggestions, as I don’t know the first damn thing about cell phones. Also, please don’t let me become one of those “cell phone people”, you know, the kind.

  Now, who should be my first call with my cell phone? I want to do something huge. Here is a general idea of who I could call:

  1. Oprah. Why not? I mean, it doesn’t get any bigger than Oprah, am I right?

  2. Sears. Why not just continue with those fuckers?

  3. The President. Actually, that’s probably a bad idea. Plus, since he is listening to people’s calls, he would know its me.

  4. My mother. Now, I would really have something if I managed this, wouldn’t I?

  5. Somebody that I had a fallling out with, like Jt or Cara. What a way to say “fuck you” than by calling out of the blue with a brand new cell phone.

  6. Perhaps a preemptive call to Scooty before he calls me. This might make the most sense since he will probably give me a complete lecture on cell phones anyways.

  7. Somebody without a cell phone. This one might be kinda hard, since everybody already has one. Ok, just about everybody. Still, it would be great to call somebody and say “you loser, I have a cell phone and you are probably answering this call on your rotary phone! Get with the times, fucker!”
