I got a brand new pair of beautiful driving gloves on line. Soft as butter and tightly fitting, I feel like Danica Patrick behind the wheel.
There are those who say I drive like her, too, but I digress.
So, you can imagine my disappointment when I discovered that I can’t operate my phone with my fingers. They just don’t register on the touch screen. Believe me, I’ve tried different angles, different parts of the fingers, etc, but no dice. For the first 3 days this week, I had to resort to taking off a glove, swiping open my phone, and bringing up and navigating my Dunkin’ app. Then I could finish the drive to work with one glove on, or I could take the time to wiggle back on my tightly fitting glove.
This morning, necessity gave birth to invention. Disgusted, I suddenly and impulsively put my nose on the bottom of my phone and vigorously swept up. Voila! I then pecked chicken-like at my Dunkin’ app and, voila again! Going to the Pay button was trickier because it is very small and nestled between other small apps. Fortunately, I have a Roman type of nose and not a fat nose, so I can in fact “peck” at things. LOL Again, success, and from now on my glove can stay on my hand!
Um … a what? So, you mean to tell me that, while I’m pecking away like a chicken with an iPhone, I could instead be in “glove mode” and work my phone like a normal person?!
Well, I could theoretically drive around with a banana in a cup holder, but they become overripe and then rot very quickly. So, my car would begin to smell like a banana, and fruit flies would magically appear, reproduce, and totally infest my car. So, I’ll stick with the nose method. LOL
Although I’m happy you are being safe, I would love to pull up next to somewhere bashing their phone into their face. I would of course then immediately turn off that road so you don’t run into me, but it would make my day.
