I have to admit...I LOVE my iphone. It has served me so many purposes! I have a few AWFUL confessions to make --- I figured what better way to confess a few things than on my blog that no one reads :)...especially my parents and my husband!
1) I never call my friends. I hate the phone. See, this may surprise you, but I don't really talk much...so there's nothing worse for me than to talk on the phone. It makes me sad because I haven't been able to keep up with so many friends from high school or college due to this hatred for the phone. Having my iphone has allowed me to access facebook a lot more and actually keep in touch with my friends this way.
2) I have a bad habit of not returning e-mails that aren't too crucial. I would read them in the office at work, but if they didn't pertain to work I would forget to write back once I got home. Accessing e-mail on my iphone has allowed me to quickly write back when I'm bored in line at the grocery store, or during middle of the night feedings.
3) I'm not very consistent with reading God's Word. I could be great for one whole week, and than not read at all the following. the iphone has many Bible applications on it. I have youversion on my phone that gives you a daily reading plan. I haven't skipped a day yet since I've had my iphone!! (again, middle of the night feedings help!)
4) I'm a TV aholic ... Even if nothing is on - I can still sit and watch for hours. I can ALWAYS find something to watch. Now I'm more interested in playing games on my phone (like word warp and free cell) or watching you tube videos (oh, wait -- that's not different from TV) I love searching through applications or reading everyone's twitters. (okay, so this one should also be a confession that I'm on the "phone" too much)
5) I'm an indecisive person. I can't make any type of small decisions such as "where should we eat?" Dan will no longer let me say "I don't know". I used to get really bad anxiety attacks over this. Well, not anymore! The iphone actually has applications for restuarants around you. It's been great for people like me who get threats from friends for not making decisions.
6) I'm not a cool person. In the past when I would be waiting for someone, or standing in line somewhere, it would make me feel awkward - I wouldn't know what to do with myself. So many people would tell me to just call someone -- but they didn't know about my phone fear that I discussed in numer one. Now, I just whip out the iphone and have so many things to do I actually don't look awkward anymore standing all alone somewhere.
Those are my reasons for loving my iphone --- by the way, this is not a paid advertisement.

Sorry to disappoint you, but someone does read your blog (I won't tell Dan or your parents...lol!)and I still love you. You and I have more in common than I thought except the phone thing except I do have some difference of opinions in what you said like you not being "cool."
Have a great day!

I think you are cool Kristi and I DO read your blog...
Kristi you can't hide from me. Your mom and I have been reading your blogs for awhile. I stuggle with the title, every time I see it I wonder who is that Ha... don't tell Dan I said that.
Anywa, I think it's awsome you are getting out of your comfort zone through such technology. When I get one I hope you can show me how to use it like you did with itunes.
Love,
Dad
Ironic how so many people DO actually read your blog because you have really good thoughts. I feel the same way standing in lines and now I do the same thing. What people don't know is that you may not say a whole lot but when you do...you are hilarious.
