Happiness as a ringtone

The Matrix aka My Old Cell Phone ScreenInstead of having my own cell phone, my company provides me with one.  It’s one of the many perks I get for working for “The Most Awesome Company Ever”.

For the last year and a half the phone that they gave us weighed about 5lbs and was as thick as my fat fingers.   Ok, maybe it wasn’t that thick but it was a clunker.  It was black and had a green display that was very reminiscent of The Matrix .  It did not have any colours and the screen was about the size of a piece of stick of Juicy Fruit Gum.

I called it my “Batman” phone because it had some cool little black ridges on it.  But it was free.  And well free is not just good, it’s awesome. I happily used that phone and still gave it love when it would only hold a charge for six hours in standby mode.

Then our Office Manager declared that it was time for a new plan and…new phones!  It was like Christmas.  Emails flying around debating the pros and cons for each phone available to us.  I ended up chosing the Razr V3 because I’m shallow and really liked the way the phone looked.  Besides it was a flip phone and I’m big on flip phones.

I’ve had my Razr for a few months now and still don’t know and don’t really care about all the little things it can do except for the fact that I can put my own ringtones on it.  With the help of a friend at work, I now have The Addams Family as my ringtone and it makes me grin like an idiot every time I hear it. 

It takes so little to make me happy.
