i had my carpets cleaned today.. the guy told me if you ever get stains use windex.
the above has nothing to do with anything but i thought it was a helpful hint.
todays rant.. and it is a rant.. is about cell phones.. i have a pay as you go cell phone which i ONLY use when i need to see if a driver is picking me up at the airport. otherwise, i have no use for a cell phone.
i went to bed, bath and BEYOND today. there was a woman who was talking so loud on her phone that i asked her to lower her voice. the look on her face was of distain. she hated me. its not the first time i've had a problem with cell phone users.
i was at my drs. office and there was only one other woman in the waiting room.. i always bring a book to read while i'm waiting for the dr.. i'm perfect as you can tell ..(don't comment)
she was bedecked with jewels and dressed like esthers pet horse. i of course was perfectly dressed (no comment please). well this women gets on her blackberry and said to whomever she was talking to, hello, this is mrs. shaiman, (her actual name)
i brought my masserati in for service and it's suppose to be ready today. she continued talking about what had been wrong with her car and i couldn't resist. i said, excuse me, mrs. shaiman, what color is your masserati? she looked at me as though i had ten heads and said blue. i then asked if the masserati was ready at the mechanics.. she said, why do you care? i said i don't care at all but i figured since you're talking so loud and mentioning your car, you might want to start a dialogue with me. she said, are you nuts lady? i said possibly but i'm not rude enough to be talking on a phone while others are waiting to go into the drs. office .
with that the nurse came out and said, mrs. shaiman.. and mrs. shaiman got up, gave me a dirty look and went into the drs. office
i was escorted into the drs. inner office and heard this.. there is some nut sitting in the waiting room listening to my phone conversation and commenting on everything i said.. my dr. said, it must be linda, she has an appointment today and i heard him laughing. he came in shortly thereafter and said, are you starting trouble with my patients? i said of course, if not me, then who.
the point of this story is, nobody needs a cell phone.. if people want to find you, they should call your house and leave a message. nobody has anything that important to say that they have to talk in offices, streets, even toilets which happened at bloomingdales while i was peeing.
this world of technology is pissing me off.
be back later

Hi!
Marc
I hate cellphones, too. Cellphones are the new addiction. People's ears are attached to those gadgets. And they are giving them major doses of radiation. In time, there will be a report naming cellphones very dangerous in terms of radiation.
ReplyDeleteI love old-fashioned payphones. Enjoy:
