My Lifeline

If you had told me 10 to 15 years ago that I would crave a cell phone like I do now...well then I probably would have believed you because I craved a pager. But if you had told my Dad that, then he wouldn't have believed you.

But after leaving my phone in Indiana last weekend and not having it all week, I realize how much someone needs a phone now. It is the lifeline to the outside world (yes I am fully aware no one calls me, J, but it's the principle of the matter). So now, I probably will check ten times before I leave from an out of town place or going to an out of town place that I have my cell phone.

Someone may call me to tell me that I've won ten million dollars....or they could just call me to tell me that I have an overdue library book. Either way, something I need to know, right?
