Day 49 -- I'm somebody

My new phone is here.  My new phone is here.  I'm somebody.  Okay, if you haven't seen The Jerk, that won't be as funny.  I wouldn't say that I've felt like nobody these last two weeks w/o a reliable cell phone, but it has certainly dampened my sense of self.  I have now bought into the idea that I have to be completely accessible and able to contact anyone, anytime by talking, texting, or emailing.    How incredible to measure importance by the numbers of contacts and messages and calls, but checking an empty cell phone and not having a way to respond to the few that make it through is disheartening.  But now I have a Smart Phone so I'm somebody w/ a 3G processor.....I'm guessing that's a good thing.
