I got a Blackberry<\/p>\n

Not because I wanted one but because my last phone fell in the bath. When I was in it.<\/p>\n

Run yourself a bath, have a soak, read a book, the book says if you are in a state of stressed out psycho ranting lunatic fringes. So I did.  As I exhaled in a horizontal position I lifted my book resting on the chair and my lovely boring mobile  phone I stupidly left there,  slid off  and plummeted into the water. Just FYI it  is not relaxing sharing your bath with a phone. <\/p>\n

The good news I didn\u2019t get electrocuted I wondered if that might happen once. Yeh yeh I know physics and I don\u2019t get along very well.  I mentioned my theory\/worry  to Teenwolf<\/a> who had to be put in an oxygen tent he laughed so much. He survived. Just.<\/p>\n

Anyway, I hate my Blackberry<\/a>. I have had it a week. It only rings when it feels like it.<\/p>\n

I can\u2019t send texts without going through about 39 steps \u2013 how Orson Wells would laugh \u2013 my life has slowed. People think I am ignoring them. I\u2019m not.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s got Twitter<\/a> and I do love a Twit (@alisonsdiary) \u2013 well I am one \u2013 but there is a mystery button which I press regularly with a low slung piece of my hand that I can\u2019t quite identify that sends things off  when I haven\u2019t finished writing them. This has the illusion (I like to think) of making me sound like a half wit.(half Twit)<\/p>\n

Facebook<\/a> well I think I get every update of every member of Facebook<\/a> across the world. It sounds like flight of the bumble bee. Ping ping ping ping ping ping. And I can\u2019t turn that off.<\/p>\n

Email \u2013 well I can\u2019t get that going at all.<\/p>\n

I can\u2019t even phone people on the bloody thing. When I punch in numbers they come out as letters.<\/p>\n

When I tell people I hate it (face to face obviously) there are two reactions.<\/p>\n

You should have got an iphone<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I love mine. You will get used to it.<\/p>\n

No I won\u2019t. I hate it.
\n I want a trim phone with a curly wire to put in my pocket and that is the end of it.<\/p>\n
