Phone

I'm in love with my new phone.

I just got it today. It arrived in a brown cardboard box on my doorstep around 4:00 this afternoon. I set it all up just in time to leave for work (After calling Mother several hundred times to figure out how to activate it and stuff). It was pouring down rain so my wonderful roommate, Jamie, drove me up to the library.
While at work, I finished putting all my numbers into my new phone's address book. I also learned that even if the phone is set on silent, the alarm isn't. However, if the custodians are across the way cleaning the carpets with their astoundingly loud carpet cleaners, it is rather hard to hear the alarm if you're sitting more that six feet away from it.
I got home from work just after 11:00. I went to the Sony Ericsson website to see about downloading software I can use when I get my USB connector. While there I checked out some of the cool things my phone can do.

My phone has an FM radio. By plugging in the hands-free set, which acts as an antenna, I can listen to countless stations! (Ok, not countless, but it's quite a few)

My phone has a camera. With video capture. This means I should start taking video and post it on here. I'll have to wait until my USB connector comes, though. Since I ordered it just today, it'll take a couple weeks. I only spent about 2 dollars on the actual cable. Shipping cost about 6 dollars.

My phone has a nifty little music editor program. I just mixed my own ringtone! It has little soundclips you can combine together to create your own tune. Way cool.

My phone also has a video/picture editor for creating little movies. Fun!

My phone makes noises when I flip it open! Granted, I'm sure I'll get sick of this eventually, but right now it's pretty much the coolest thing ever!

My phone has a sound recorder. Now I can record those secret government phone calls I'm always making, so some evil villain can use them against me!

Lastly, my phone comes preloaded with Tetris. You gotta love a phone that provides you with hours of mindless entertainment!

In conclusion, I've discovered I really am my mother's child. I love my cool electronic gadgets, just like she does. And also in conclusion, I need to go to bed. It's much too late.
