I have sold my soul...
Yep, that's right. I have sold my soul. I'm not sure to whom, but it's sold. You see today I ordered a BlackBerry. No, not the delicious fruit in pie form, but the little device that not only received phone calls, but also emails. And it can send them too. And you can play all sorts of games on it (and therefore feed my Tetris addiction - see that in a later post). After seeing the BB take over my co-workers lives, watching them become so dependant on this device that if left in the car, at home, or on a desk they suffer from major panic meltdowns I swore I would never drink the Kool-Aid and get one. But then something happened, I started to change my mind. It might've been when I saw a commercial for BlackBerry's and this cute baby pink one showed up on my TV screen. That could've started it. After weeks (yes, weeks) I've been thinking and thinking about it. Then I found out my Mom has one, she only uses hers for emails, but still. Then in passing conversation I happened to mention I was considering one but I was also going to wait until it was time for a new phone (I get a new one every two years per our contract with Verizon) when my Mom pulled a letter out of her purse from Verizon saying she was qualified for a free BlackBerry (meaning we had a $100 credit). So that was the final sign from above that my soul was about to be sold. After an hour at the Verizon store on Saturday I went online and ordered my pink BlackBerry today. It should be here by Wednesday. My soul might've been sold, but I'm going to look so damn cute carrying that pink BlackBerry.
