This is sad. I am in love with my new iphone and must monitor how much time I devote to it before it becomes a full on obsession. I am in danger of becoming an Enid Blytonesque mother figure (without the success or the talent) in years to come where my children remember me bitterly as somebody who spent more time with their phone than with them.
I keep wanting to put it over my shoulder and burp it. Perhaps that means that I should either have another baby or get a dog. But the iphone is SO much better as a substitute for my maternal cravings. I wonder whether there are nappies one can buy for iphones – I’ll download that swishy poo app after all and see if there’s one that imitates a crying baby.
Yesterday my youngest said to me “what would you do if I accidentally knocked your cup of tea all over your iphone?”. “Well” I said, “first I might cry, then I’d have to wrap it in clingfilm and rush it to A & E where I would insist on an overnight bed in the third degree burns unit”. “Maybe there should be a special section called the ‘pod’ unit” he said. Which I thought was a really good idea.
Which means I have lost the plot.
Must get a grip.
Off out for the day – but the really exciting thing is I CAN STILL CHECK MY EMAILS ON THE TRAIN! Hooray.
You see? SAD.

Not sad at all!!! How I miss my iphone which sadly drowned in orange squash….*shakes head*….I am still waiting for the insurance company to send me my replacement phone and I honestly feel like a limb has been removed….friends keep showing me new apps (Talking Carl is great) and I am so envious of them…my emergency backup phone can only call people or text…how caveman can you get?????

ha ha ha, brilliant! Not living in a 3G area means i can’t do things like check my emails on the train – oh and the fact that we don’t have any trains either…but apart from that, i know what you mean. only mine isn’t an iphone either it’s a nokia n900. so i suppose in reality nothing like your situation at all. I’ll shut up now.

I love my iPhone too, worry not. Gives me so much freedom, for example, right now I’m doing a poo and reading your blog. Can’t do that on a desktop! x

Well, yes, a fantastic amount of freedom, but not sure the image of you doing a poo whilst reading my blog was exactly what I had in mind for my blog friends!! Lx

I too am in love with my iPhone.
We are inseparable and go everywhere together.
It is my new BFF.

I too am a slave to my iPhy as you know. You must get the fake text app – hours of fun! The girls have been sending me fake texts from Colin Firth and Johnny Depp all weekend and I must say it’s a great morale booster xx

Yes. I remember you being v in love with your new phone in Florida. Can’t believe it took me so long to catch up. Will get that text app immediately. Sounds perfect to cheer me up Lx
