**FCD ** has his new e-mail enabled phone so I inherited his old phone. Unfortunately, I lost all the numbers from my old phone, so I’m having to rebuild the directory. I know I had some mumpers’ numbers but they’re lost now. So if you wanted me to have your number, send me an email or a PM and I’ll add ya.
I do have one question - why don’t phones offer a simple ring-like ringtone?? I hate musical numbers or weird sounds. I just want it to ring. Stoopit phone.
I don’t have fancy ring tones either, FCM. I just use one of the default tones.
**Taters ** - unfortunately, the defaults on this phone are really stupid. I’m going to read the book and see what my options are.
Trade you for my old Blackberry? It came with six different ringtones, all of which sound properly phone-like. My ringtone for the last four years was an old school rotary phone BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRiNG! 
Of course, now I have a shiny new Blackberry which came with six properly phone-like ringtones, another half-dozen peppy fun tunes, and one custom tune that I promptly installed because I refuse to conform to what the manufacturer picks for me.
I used to download ringtones back home, but mostly because having a generic ringtone was considered Very Uncool. Here no one cares, so neither do I.
My new shoes have arrived, but unfortunately I ordered them a size too big. The reviews all said they had to order them a size bigger than they usually did, and I usually wear a 5.5 so I ordered them in a 6. Too big. Grumble. Guess that means I need a 5.5 after all. This is why I don’t like ordering shoes online. Such a hassle to exchange for sizes.
Rigs, I’d most definitely want to smack that chick. I can’t imagine someone doing something like that in a class. I’m kind of surprised the Prof. doesn’t call her out on it. It’s stoopit for sure.
FCM such is the way of the cell phone rings these days. Mine used to ring to “we didn’t start the fire” by Billy Joel. It’s set to one of the defaults now as I lost the special one when I got a new phone. I don’t think any of the verizon defaults sound like a ringing phone though. Or at least I don’t recall one. You might be able to download a real phone ring though. It’s silly, but it might be the only way to get what you want.
Things have been boring in the mouse house today, I took a walk down the street to Davis Square earlier just to get out and about a bit. It was so nice today–if a bit rainy. The windows are still open to let in fresh air. I can’t wait for spring! Took my Valentine’s heart off of the apt. door and put up the shamrocks. I’m such a dork–not many people decorate their apt. doors. Oh well.
:: hugs :: to anyone who wants them.
Er, where does she buy books?
Understatement of the year!
And WhyNot, that image made me giggle. A lot.
Hi, meek! Any time you want to stop by with a mini-musical…or just to say hi…you’re welcome.
And welcome to all the other newbies/periodic participants.
Got home just before 4, crawled into bed and slept for almost 1 1/2 hours. I thought I’d slept enough, but apparently my body had a different opinion. Now, I both hungry and sleepy and deciding what I really want to do.
I’m thinking I might try putting a little more laundry away and then crawl into bed and watch a movie or something.
Hugs to everyone I’ve missed…

Apparently she doesn’t. She’s a librarian, ferchrissakes! We never BUY books!
:rolleyes: *
I never ringtone, I am always on vibrate.
Glad he likes the new phone Mom!
Ok, off to shower and go to my meeting. Something is wrong with the world when a school board still meets when school was closed for Prez Day!!!
This wins the thread.
I spent about $50 on clothes today. I got some new shoes (these are close to what I got), some trouser socks to wear with said shoes, and some new jeans. Now I remember why I hate buying pants. Someone needs to tell Target that we don’t all need bootcut jeans.
Hair is dyed and drying. There will be pictures when it’s dry.
I read that as 50 cents and thought–dang, she got some bargains! Nice shoes.
Awaiting dyed hair pics.
Off to do homework, then watch Bride and Prejudice–Jane Austen meets India.
Pork chops, green beans and rice make a nice dinner.
eBags.com is having a President’s Day sale. I needed a new piece of carry-on luggage - perfect timing!
I’ve started reading An Irish Country Doctor. It’s a bit twee, but I’m a sucker for sweet little stories about Ireland. :: coughMaeveBinchycough ::
The fact that I thought the last two posts were rigsy’s means something, doesn’t it? Either you’re both becoming the same person or I’m still sleepy.

I am rigs’s Korean American doppleganger. 
ETA: damnit, they don’t have the black shoes in my size. Well, I’ll give the red ones a try.
So, that’s who it is! I was wondering. I thought it was Margaret Cho. But you must get red shoes, if we are to psychically linked in any way.

hello, my name is eleanorigby and I’m addicted to those nasty marshmallow eggs that come in the fake egg cartons around Easter time. I cannot stop eating them. I am helpless and answer to the Easter Bunny.
Why the hell isn’t the 12 step program helping me? <stuffs mouth with another “egg”>
I gave up on the RAZR. I hated everything about it. So we pulled my SIM card and put it back where it belongs. I’ve got a basic phone that has a ring that sounds like a ring and that is way more user friendly than the other one. So now we’ve got a V3 to sell. I’ll see if any of my sibs want it before checking out the open market…
**MBG ** - he’s so cute with his new toy. He is such a guy!!
Bills are paid and in the car, waiting to be dumped at the post office in my way to work in the morning.
Is it Firday yet??
ARGH I hate that new AT&T commercial with that family playing Scrabble and using words like ROTFL. It makes me so irrationally angry. :mad:
yup. CFM.
As to the size, keep them. You’ll be thankful for the extra room when your feet swell up from wearing 42" heels. (seriously, tho, that’s why they say to order them slightly bigger - that and room for hosiery - what? some women like opaque tights in the colder months, and those are bulkier than pantyhose)
I’m a student, but am certainly am not covered in chocolate.
I’m waiting for pizza to get here. I’m getting stuffed crust pizza because my parents would never let me get it when I was little, and the thread about that in IMHO reminded me about it, so I’m about to eat it for the first time since I was really little and I went to Pizza Hut with some of my friends’ parents.
