the blackberry

i've never been one to lust after a fancy cell phone. why pay for a phone when you can get a free one? but the free ones are never that nice. they're like the 21st century version of the zack morris cell phone. you know the one-

you have to charge the battery all night to talk on it for half an hour, it adds an extra ten pounds to your purse, the antenna is a mile long, if you drop it the screen cracks and paint chips off, and you have to plug one ear so you can hear what the other person is saying?

i decided it was time to venture outside the world of the free sanyo flip-phone and into the world of cell phone cameras, keyboards, and wireless. this beauty arrived at my house yesterday and i love it!

Hey Carly, I know it took me long enough to say hello! It sounds like things are going great for you, especially with a blackberry. We are so far behind on the technical world, we just barely got a pre-paid cell phone - but at least it's not the Zach Morris phone! By the way - I love the picture a few posts back of all of us in our awesome hairdoes, lots of memories came flooding back! I'm happy that things are going well for you, it's great to get in touch!
