New cell phone

[brightrosefox]

01. I've come to realize that my butt:
Will always be big in proportion to the rest of me.

02. I've come to realize that when I talk:
I either sound like a know-it-all or completely naive. My voice is also an odd mix of low and high pitches depending on who I'm talking to and what I'm talking about.

03. I've come to realize that if I love someone:
I can't let go, ever.

04. I've come to realize that I need:
To know that I'm fine just how I am, and can only improve on what exists.

05. I've come to realize that I've lost:
Too much time being afraid.

06. I've come to realize that I hate it when:
People shove their beliefs down my throat and throw tantrums when I don't agree.

07. I've come to realize that if I'm drunk:
I become extremely silly, and dizzy, and it's annoying.

08. I've come to realize that money:
Is something that always needs careful consideration.

09. I've come to realize that my mother:
Will always be one of my best friends and I should call her more often.

10. I've come to realize that I'll probably always be:
Shy and quirky.

11. I've come to realize that I have a crush on:
Most of my close female friends.

12. I've come to realize that the last time I cried was:
Very cleansing and helpful.

13. I've come to realize that my cell phone:
Is brand new and cute and I hope it doesn't get discontinued like my last one.

14. I've come to realize that when I wake up in the morning:
I will always be in varying degrees of pain and fatigue.

15. I've come to realize that before I go to sleep at night:
I tend to meditate without even thinking about it.

16. I've come to realize that right now I am thinking about:
How good that shot of espresso with milk and cocoa and cinnamon was.

17. I've come to realize that babies:
Are not something I want, and it may be many years before I do want them. See question 6.

18. I've come to realize that when I get on livejournal:
I notice how many people are interested in my life and I'm still surprised.

19. I've come to realize that today I will:
Be grateful for the light workload.

20. I've come to realize that tonight I will:
Take my analgesic muscle relaxant and metaphorically roll around on the floor for a while.

21. I've come to realize that tomorrow I will:
Be grateful I am still able to get up, work a full time job, and go home without agony.

22. I've come to realize that I really want to:
Get this book finished and shopped to publishers.

23. I've come to realize that who is most likely to repost this is:
Someone who comments on my journal frequently.

24. I've come to realize relationships:
Are like air and water, vitally necessary.

25. I've come to realize love:
Purely and unconditionally, and surprisingly easily.

26. I've come to realize my best guy friend:
Is my husband.

27. I've come to realize my best girl friend:
Will always be my heart sister.

28. I've come to realize food:
Is something I need to love and have fun with.



Adam and I have new cell phones, and we didn't have to pay for them. He gets his phone through his boss. His flip phone died, so his boss got him a Motorola i335. It's very cute. It feels like it's made of rubber. I keep wondering if it'll bounce if dropped.
After I had admired my husband's new phone, I realized that my 2-year contract with AT&T was up, and I need to renew it, and I also wanted a new phone, since my LG model had been discontinued. There is a brand new AT&T store that just opened next to the Gallery Place-Chinatown metro, which is across the street from my office. After work yesterday, I went in, and the lady who greeted me called over a new employee to help me. I told the guy that I had a very low budget, and all I wanted was a flip phone with a camera, nothing fancy. There were only two options like that: a $40 Samsung A437 and a free Nokia 6085. Wait, free? I kept staring at the little black Nokia 6085 floor model, and asking the guy what the catch was; could I really walk out of here without paying for a phone? He said that it was free with the renewal of a 2-year contract. Well, hey, that's what I was there for anyway. Perfect. It was taken care of. The guy took my old phone and transferred the SIM card, which he said I took very good care of, and then charged the Nokia for me. He gave me the phone to put in my purse, took the old phone to be recycled, handed me the bag with the box, and shook my hand. I went downstairs to the main floor, where the woman who had greeted me asked if I'd found what I wanted. I held up the Nokia and grinned. "It was free!" She gave me a high-five.
Since my personal ringtones and graphics hadn't transferred, I bought them: Three ringtones: Enya's "The River Sings," Sting's "Desert Rose," and Deep Forest's "Sweet Lullaby." Three themes: Rose, Rainbow, and Dolphins, all by Access Lane. I've got the Dolphins theme with the Enya ringtone right now. The charges on next month's bill will be worth the pretty stuff on a free cell phone.
