PEEZER FOUND MY CELL PHONE!!!
I knew it would show up sometime. It's been almost four weeks since I apparently set it down on the rocking chair in his bedroom, possibly to pick up some of the stuff on his floor or maybe to dig in his closet for something, then absentmindedly wandered away or became distracted (oooh, shiny!), never to think again about the phone for almost 24 hours afterwards.
But this morning, while I was making his oatmeal for breakfast, he wandered into the kitchen, holding out the missing communication device.
"Look what I found in my room," he said.
I had pretty much given up on looking for it. In fact, last week I reactivated my old cell phone, the one I had before my QWERTY keyboard-equipped Env2. My kids were all but mortified that their mother was sporting a KRZR2, because gah mom it's soooo four years ago. But you know what, I was mostly content with this phone. It was a Perfectly Fine Phone. I could place and receive calls, store addresses, send text messages (though each one takes MINUTES to peck out), and even snap low-resolution photos. I only got the newer one because it cost me nothing and it had the keyboard, all the better to txt with. And we all know that these kids nowadays, they prefer texting to talking.
So, I'm back in business now. I will call to deactivate the KRZR2 and reactivate the ENV2 and guess what, in October I'm due for ANOTHER free phone (thanks, Verizon!).
But I think I'll keep the ENV2 - and the KRZR2 - just in case. Because my track record speaks for itself, don't you think?
Thanks Peezer! (insert gratuitous cute kid photo here:)
