My Cell Phone

Ok, so I am not technically on my roadtrip yet, but this is in preparation for the trip, so I had to blog because it was funny.  Anyone who knows me knows that I rarely have my cell phone with me.  This morning Lance had an “intervention” with me expressing his deep concern that I don’t carry it, and that my cell phone still has not been “found” since the 8th Grade trip to St. Louis over a month ago. He offered to buy me an I-phone, thinking that if the gadget were cooler I would want to carry it more.  Uh, no.  I like my phone because it is FREE!  Meaning I haven’t had to pay a cell phone bill for the past six years!  Ahh, a perk of being a radio wife.  Besides, who needs to call me?  NO ONE!  My girls have no cell phone and Lance NEVER calls me.  When we dated, I called him all the time.  My parents and I had long conversations about the phone bill.  When he DOES call home, it is always bad news.  To prove my point, I have located the phone and will charge it today.  I will carry it all week, and we will just see how many times it rings.  I am not anti-technology, but I also know that I’m not important enough that I have to be reached immediately.
