Yesterday, Genius Golfer upgraded our entire family to new phones. He and I ended up with "smart" phones. The kids just got new ones that are all included (read: unlimited texting and talk) in our new family plan.
Now, if you will recall, I drug my feet about getting cell phone, but I had lovely girlfriends who pulled me kicking and screaming into the 21st century by getting me a little phone for my 40th birthday. After having that for two years, I wonder how I got along without it.
Now, after paying 20 cents each minute or text I sent OR received, I am really looking forward to having a phone that works for me, rather than the other way around,. But this phone might be too smart for this user. There is a lot to learn. Of course, the kids get my phone without even seeing it before. Intuitively they just get this kind of technology. How is that?!
So I am learning, but the curve is steep. At least I have my new ring tone--the Pink Panther theme, by Henry Mancini--so I can recognize when my phone rings. One step down...many, many more to go.

Just got a new smartphone myself. At least mine has a keyboard so that I can actually text now...I think. Of course, just when I think I am "smart-savy", they throw an upgrade at me and I'm totally lost again.
