Phones

So here's a little story about my adventures with phones, or lack thereof. Kris and I don't have a home phone, we just use a cell phone. However, we only have one between us. This usually isn't an issue as I don't need a cell at work. If we are doing different things in the evening we can plan out who needs the phone. Yes, I could feel pretty smug about saving money on phone usage.
Tonight I did not plan things out very well and I had a soccer game while Kris was out with the phone and the car. A friend was supposed to pick me up for soccer but I hadn't arranged what time. I figured the solution to my problem was a pay phone, so I set out walking around downtown trying to find one. There appears to be a disturbing lack of pay phones in this city. I think it is because of that movie Phone Booth. (It's a lame movie). After several blocks of walking and some directions I did find my pay phone but was unable to get a hold of my ride. Fortunately he picked me up anyway and I only had to wait outside for 15 minutes. Unfortunately, we lost the game. The moral of this story seems to be that I need to get a cell phone.
To make this day more unpleasant I missed lunch with uncle Mal and had to eat soup at my desk. I am sorry Mal, I was punished for my offense.
All in all it was kind of a cruddy day. Not so much that I really have anything t complain about, but it's my blog and I'll cry if I want to.
At least this weekend is the famed Ramer Getaway. Here is some exciting pictures from last years trip.
