"I am one with my BlackBerry."
So my Friend calls me . . . . and I don’t answer because I’m in thee middle of a very important GTalk convo via My CraccBerry as I’m driving which is always safe ::LOL::. (I recommend NEVER doing this) and I immediately receive this message “Dude answer your phone”. At that point I call back and she tells me about this hilarious article that is clearly the story of my life and it’s comforting to know that I’m not the only one who experiences chronic “ringxiety”. Some of my pals have recently converted over to thee dark side, ::Evil Laugh::; CloudHopper, Jess, Tav. . . too many to name. Welcome again. Thanks Kristin for suggesting this winner. I included a tiny taste of thee Glory below. Reading thee entire article is mandatory. Proceed accordingly and Enjoy. If your like me everything they say your response should most likely be “DUHH!!”.

"I'll feel it, look at it. It's not vibrating. Then it starts vibrating," he said. "I am one with my BlackBerry."]
