My new cell phone is ruining my life

T-Mobile DashIs there a 12-step program for cell phone addiction? Because I'm obsessed with my T-Mobile Dash.

The thing has Windows Mobile, so it syncs with my Outlook email and calendar. I've also hooked it up to my 3 active gmail accounts. And this phone has the worst of all evils - Bubble Breaker.

So not only does the thing buzz every time I get a phone call - It also goes off every time I get a personal email, a work email, or a meeting reminder. I carry it everywhere I go. I email from my car. I surf the internet in the elevator. I play Bubble Breaker at band practice.

Even when I'm in a room with other people, I've got my face buried in this little screen interacting with the outside world. I'm so connected that I may never have to have a face to face conversation ever again.

  1. um, yea. interact with people. your 3 gmails full of spam can wait. either that or enjoy another beer until you forget about it.

  2. don’t listen to him. succumb to the power of technology JJ.
    But on the real…that phone looks pretty solid. i kinda want one.

  3. I’m pretty sure i’m right on at least the beer portion. mmm beer. plus, beer helps me shit the next day (keeping with the theme here).
