So I finally got a new mobile phone. I’d had my work mobile for 5 years and I’m not even sure it was new when I got it. For the last year it had gone slightly mad, turning off in mid-conversation and rejecting calls of its own accord and the keypad had on and off days. I was always slightly embarrassed taking it out of my bag in a public place but the new company phone didn’t look much better - or at least Ian’s didn’t but that might have been because he kept it in his pocket along with other fluffy things that we can only guess at resulting in a barely visible screen full of white flecks of cotton on the inside.
I decided on the Chocolate - even though its red and doesn’t resemble chocolate in form, smell or taste but the name always conjures luxury and good times (at least it does for me anyway). It is a slider phone with touch sensitive keys that light up. Its really small and neat so I can fit it in my useless lady style pockets and it has some really nice features like linking photos with people so their face displays when they call. It does have some disappointing ringtones but Brian says that I am supposed to download those anyway (and no, Brian, I am not using the tunes from the SIMs so just stop with the autosuggestion methods). It even has a pretty little thing that you attach to the phone which can then be used to clean the screen and it comes with its own little velvet carrying pouch.
Now all I need is someone to phone me…..

YOU HAVE A RED LG CHOCOLATE PHONE??????….. I think I hate you
PS….. You’ve tasted it???
Well - my new phone has a 3.2 mp camera with a real flash, can read pdf and word documents and plays music from its 2gb of internal memory.
Of course its also the size of a small cat but at least that way I wont lose it.
It may or may not be true that I stroke it to sleep in a disturbingly gollum-like fashion.
Jamie, don’t be alarmed, it’s completely understandable. The precious must be well taken-care of.
It’s not weird if you spend long hours gazing into its hypnotic LCD display talking to yourself while your skin turns grey, your hair falls out, and your eyes get all big and buggy. It’s only natural.
Oh my god Brian, hair loss, buggy eyes - I knew I should have stopped you taking the Tom Tom to bed…
Jamie…. your phone sleeps????
