What's Your Ring Tone?

You can tell a lot about a person by their phone's ring tone.  My phone has the same ring that it came with, which tells others that I am just too lazy to change it.  The people who know and love me know the truth, though.  I have no idea how to change it.  Technology and I do not mix.  If I want something done with my phone, I have to ask my 14 year old son how to do it.  He would be able to make it ring with an Anna blue song, or something better than what I have now. His phone has a dozen different ring tones.  I think he even has it set where different people ring a different ring tone.  It used to just play that Pants On The Ground song, until my 84 year old Grandmother said she liked that song. 

It didn't take long for him to change it after that.

You're Calling Where?

I remember years ago, my dad gave me Phone Cards for Christmas. This was back when I didn't have long distance on my phone, and I was speaking to my sister in New York every day. Luckily, these days I have unlimited long distance, so I can call her whenever I want, and we can talk for as long as we want. It's funny how fast technology changes, and the improvements that can be made to every day things, like long distance calls.

Remember when you used to have to pay for every minute that you were on the internet? My bill would be insane if that was still how things work.

My long distance only works for calls in the United States, though, so if I want to call another country, I would still need prepaid phone cards. These calling cards have different rates for different countries, but using them is cheaper than calling direct.

And you all know I am all about saving money.
