iAmish

As many of you know, my iPhone broke the last time I was in Tuscaloosa about a month ago. I guess it had just been dropped one too many times and decided that it had had enough abuse. RIP, sweet one.

It has undoubtedly been the longest month of my life having to live with out an iPhone. Yes, I am one of those people now who thinks turning on the weather channel to check the temperature is too much of a hassle. It has been impossible for me to take sneak attack pictures of things/people that I find hilarious, has hindered my Facebook stalking abilities, and even brought my Twitter updates to a near halt. I wouldn't wish this life on anyone. How do the Amish do it?

The worst part of this whole debacle is that it has been very difficult to do my very favorite thing: prove people wrong. Usually when a debate arises, I can take out my trusty iPhone and google my way to being right. These days I've had to rely on my mere intelligence and I'm just not willing to take that risk anymore. So since I couldn't do this a few weeks ago, here it goes now. Read it and weep:

"You miss 100% of the shots you don't take." -Wayne Gretzky I was right. You were wrong. I'm awesome.

BUT! The time has finally come for me to get a replacement. When I have it in my hands I want to run slow motion through a field of daisies with it. Or maybe just check the weather.

That is the worst argument of all time. You are wrong.
