It’s Cooler Than the Other Side of the Pillow
15 Jul
I command you to play this video as you read this post. I am certifiable at this point (as you already know).
Yes, I am completely in love with my new iPhone. This song was playing on a local NPR story about the musical Jersey Boys when I was in route to the Apple Store this morning. How fitting!
I am a material girl and a lemming after all. I was in line for 4.25 hours. I know I wrote about my embarrassment for my materialistic and foolish behavior just four days ago, but I really wanted to possess the coveted iToy before we go to San Diego this weekend. When I arrived at the mall, a dude who looked just like John Cusack with retro eyewear (swoon … drool … faint) told me that it would be a two to two and a half hour wait. In my head I knew I should not wait in line; however, the voices started talking again, and insanity prevailed.
Not surprisingly, Boog wanted nothing to do with it when I came home. He asked if the screen was yellow and mumbled something under his breath that sounded like psycho hose beast when I said it was not and was the best.toy.I.had.ever.owned. Boog’s a PC guy, hates cell phones, and would rather play World of Warcraft with all of his free time. I give it until the end of the week before he’s a converted iTard too.
With that said, I am now the proud geekdorknerd owner of an iPhone …
I love you, baby,
And if it’s quite alright,
I need you, baby,
To warm a lonely night.
I love you, baby.
Trust in me when I say:
Oh, pretty baby,
Don’t bring me down, I pray.
Oh, pretty baby, now that I found you, stay …
ROTFLMAO! Welcome to the cult sister!
Got ya – you’re one of us now!
Congrats. Hopefully Homer won’t be far behind you!
Congrats! You’ll have no problem being coy with it and driving Boog nuts eventually. The yellow is a feature not a bug…..
@ poppingbubbles ~ YOU are my cult leader.
@ Greytfriend ~ iCult member since July 15, 2008
@ fandpinlv ~ iWant to know more details about what’s happened since last Fri.
@ Homer ~ If he wasn’t feeling so bad right now, iKnow he would have been all over it.
Enjoy your new toy!
For now I’m stuck in the past with a Razr and a small green ipod Nano.
I don’t mind!
AT&T has no coverage where I live so Verizon it is.
Am I uncool? I have no idea what the yellow screen is. Does it really have one?
I’ve been on the warpath about getting an iPhone for a long time. When the new one came out I was jazzed as my Razr and it’s plan expire on my birthday. I put the word out that I wanted nothing from anybody but the iPhone. So, now I wait pateiently. Let me know how you like it. Is it much different than the original – the size etc. I couldn’t put my father’s down when they came up to visit. I think I shorted it out from the drool. LOL So, drop me a line and let me know. I will live vicariously through you for the next three weeks!
No iPhone here, but the iPod touch. So does this make us like first tech cousins or something…
@ Tricia ~ I had Verizon for several years and loved the coverage. It was a customer service issue that made me quit them about 2 1/2 years ago.
@ Saintseester ~ No clue either
@ Chatty ~ It is ridiculously awesome. That is all. I am so happy I waited for the 3G.
@ Citizen Jane ~ We would be connected regardless because you are an old soul just like me.
See I LOATHE cell phones in general. I hate being available at all times. I only have one because my mother makes me have one and I MAKE her pay for it. Cause left to my own devices I’d pass. Although I do use mine as my alarm clock so I suppose it has some intrinsic value.
Im a PC guy as well BUT I will own that fabulous toy as well, I gotta get Tense one first however. Oh wait its a phone as well???
