What Would We do Without Cell Phones...

The same thing we had been doing before they were invented.

Who all had a CB radio in their car? I did. I remember getting in my car and chatting with all my friends, "Breaker, breaker, 1-9." Back then it was a really cool thing to have, like a cell phone is nowadays.

My sister got a cell phone! It's about time, but like me, she'll probably hardly use it. It'll be nice to be able to get in touch with her when she's not home though. Right now I can't leave a message with my mom because she won't remember and they don't have an answering machine or voice mail, so I would have to keep calling back until my sister finally answers if I need to talk to her, or call my other sister to see if she knows where she is.

The plan I have has all the bells and whistles, except 4G LTE. To tell the truth, I hardly use the internet, but it is handy to have if I do have to look up something or just want to go up on Facebook while we're traveling somewhere. I might go for a new plan when it's time to upgrade my phone, but that all depends on if Dave wants to join and then we'll go for a family plan. Right now, after my two year contract is up, I won't have to sign a new contract unless I go with a new plan. My two years aren't up though until April of next year, but I can upgrade my phone in October if I want. If I do go with a new plan, it'll be to lower my data plan from 5GB to less, like maybe 2GB. I haven't really decided yet. I may just stay with the plan and phone I have now.

I really liked the phone I had before this one, but they don't make them anymore. That one was drowned on a white water rapids ride at Kennywood in Pittsburgh and when I turned in the claim for a new phone, they sent me the one I have now. I don't like the keyboard on it. The one on my old one was a lot easier to see the little symbols above the letters. This one is a pain, but I was able to find a cool Mickey Mouse case for it. I'm sure I would with a new one, but if I want to change it, like I do on this one, the cost of the cases tend to add up, even on EBay.

I guess I should change my case to my Steeler one since it's football season now, yes I do have a Steeler one, but I think I'll wait until the regular season starts.
