While here, I decided it was time to get my Verizon iPhone. I went online to order it on the third of the month when it was available to current customers, but because I didn't know where I was going to be, I didn't have a place for them to send it. Then, they sold out. First, we hit the local mall, but it was PACKED. I think everyone in town was in the mall parking lot. There was no place to park the truck and the traffic just to drive around the mall to get back out, kept us there for forty minutes.
I was desperate to get this phone, so I looked up another store and begged Ed to drive me over there. He was extremely resistant, afraid that there would be no parking, but I annoyed him so much with my begging that he finally gave in.
And I am so glad we did. When we got there, the store was emtpy. We were greeted by at least six salespeople, who were leaning on the counters watching the snow come down. It was the quickest visit to Verizon I've ever had; in and out in less than thirty minutes.
I walked out the door with my beautiful new gadget safely encased in a squishy purple cover. To make the day even more amazing, the sun came out as we drove away from the store, reflecting off the stark white banks of snow, making them appear as if they were sprinkled with diamonds.
New York was sparkling, I had my iPhone, and all was right in the world.

Get the app "Words With Friends" and we can play. U am listed as FandangoTraveler. I love it AND we can chat!
Funny how the crowds were very small in most places. The new people guessed that most of the people desperately wanting one pre-ordered?
Did you happen to notice how much in love Kendall was with his iPhone? I have never seen him so excited about a gadget before. Have fun with all your new apps. Urban Spoon sounds great.
You will have so much fun with the "locator" apps with your travel! I am a total iPhone addict.
What apps have you ended up with? I'm becoming so dependent on my "Precious" that I may have to find a 12 step program soon!
