When did we become so Attached to our Tech Toys?
This morning I woke up to find my Cell phone dark. Turned off, I thought. I tried to 
turn it on and a funny looking screen appeared. It wouldn't do anything. Nothing. Nada. So I tried to turn it off to try turning it on again. Now it won't turn off either.
Oh well, I'll deal with it later, I thought. I had an 8am run with Team Rio. We're training for the half marathon. It's Saturday, I have nothing planned but lunch with my husband. We run 8 miles, meet back at the running store to shop (10% of all sales today went to Big Brothers Big Sisters of Middle TN - that's who Team Rio supports).
As I was leaving, close to 10:30, I bumped into a client who I hadn't seen in several years. Do you see where this is going? It was almost noon before I used my husband's phone to check my messages!
Yikes! 3 Messages.
I have a home with a "Coming Soon" sign on it. It's not in the MLS. An agent called at 8:30 to show it at 10am.
Even if my phone was working, it would have been in my car. I don't carry it when I run. I was apologetic, when I returner her call. But then I thought Hmmmm.
The house isn't on the market. It's not like they're supposed to be ready at all times. The sellers are probably not quite ready to show it. So an hour an a half notice? Really?
Just a little Rant.
I hate being so dependent on my cell phone. I'll get a new one tomorrow.
