I can see why it's called that, damn thing is very addicting.

The only reason it is in bed with me is I am a graveyard widow and I like to have a phone close just in case something happens and I need to dial without the phone making any noise.

Definitely worth looking into since we all have cell phones...

EDIT: And my daughter's 13. She's had it for 2 years now. But then again, I've been working in the cellular industry since the bag & car phone days. Remember those??? lol...
Yep, I remember the bag phones very well. Was it just me or did those things get better service?

I really hate it, I coulda slept till 11 lol.

It wasnt even that bad for me to get up this morning, just sucked big time.

They say you need/get less sleep when you get older, so I guess your not that old yet if you needed that extra bit lol

Yeah, hard to say. I have always been very sensitive to the amount of sleep I get, and the quality too. I am an 8 hours a night person, no bones about it.

So I decided the next time I am at the store, I am going to see if they make women's t-shirts in the 3-pack variety pack...

Sorry Mark. Sort of an inside joke. Talked to Chris for a bit on the phone last night, and somehow we got on the topic of shopping. His idea of shopping was buying a 3-pack of t-shirts at the department store.
