Sometimes, you don’t know where the hit is coming from!
After using Windows Mobile from v5.0, and Windows Phone from its inception until now!
One of the reasons why we hit it off was because she was very tech savvy.
I liked that.
Fast forward to this past weekend when she dropped a decision that hit with the force of a high-yield atomic bomb:
She’d like to move from Windows Phone to an iPhone.
What?
What??
WHAT???
My wife!
An iPhone!
Using a spoiled fruit product?
Why, begged Yours Truly?
Answer: her clone is getting an iPhone 5 as well!
That’s it?
Are you freakin’ kiddin’ me?
Not too long ago, I seem to remember that when she was asked, “Do you take this wonderful guy to be your husband, to love and obey?” she answered, “I do.”
Now, all that is forgotten just because she wants the same phone as her identical twin?
This is more than wrong.
It is a betrayal.
I’m broken.
What’s next, having my kids drop their Windows Phones for iPhones as well?
Seriously though, her secondary reason for making the change lies with the cellular reception we get from Sprint here in NE Colorado: it is totally crappy.
Apart from Verizon Wireless, all other mobile telcos are crap. VZW not only has total cellular coverage, but they also have 4G service.
To punish her for her betrayal, I shall be sleeping on the couch for the next few!
UPDATE: My brother informs me he that distinctly heard the priest say “…love & cherish…”
Whatever! I know what I heard the Padre say, and I don’t need no stinkin’ videotape to remind me!
