- You use your cell phone as a flashlight.
- You check someone’s facebook or twitter status before emailing or txting them to see how their day is going.
- You have the urge to write LOL or
in a business email.
- You drive out of your way to get your cell phone that you left at home even though you never carried one with you for years.
You’re considered an old-timer techie when…
- You got your first cell phone for self-protection not only to reach people in an emergency but because it was so big it could double as a weapon.
What about you?

Oh, another one! Claire “pauses” things like books and games she’s playing, whether or not there is a TV involved.
All I can say is that if I did not have technology – I would probably cease to exist!
CK Lunchbox referred me over here..
I’m guilty about the flashlight one. I just did it the other day. How else am I supposed to get thru a messy room when my baby is sleeping??
Krystal, I agree! In May, we did a 12 day Road Trip, on which we were totally unplugged from the Internet. It was just what I needed to get back to reality. Of course, I’m totally immersed again, and I’m not sure I’d want to take another break like that!
Eric, I hear ya! I don’t remember the last time I used a real flashlight. For real!
This list is so great because the points are too true!
I’ve been a little twitchy this week without my cell phone service. Not for the actual phone part, but for being away from email. Eep! But I’m surviving.
Thanks, Lori!
I used to make fun of people who used CrackBerries. Now that I have one, I’ve realized how addicting, oops, I mean HANDY, they really are. Oh, and I got an email from Pot. She said Kettle is looking really dark and metalish today.
When you spend more time with your iPhone than your husband.
“You check someone’s facebook or twitter status before emailing or txting them to see how their day is going.”
Well of course you do, wouldn’t you feel like a tool if they had just posted that their cat died and you’re all “hey!” without knowing?
Amber, the love Glenda (my crackberry) and I share cannot be compared to the bonds of marriage. Not sure if I’m helping or hindering your argument.
Skye, what you say is closer to the truth than you can imagine! Eeek!
