Why You Need Your Own Phone

me: Hi mom, we’re on our way to dinner with some friends. I just wanted to let you know that my phone is almost dead, so if you can’t get ahold of me on it later, don’t worry.

mom: What, who is we? Why isn’t it charged?

me: We is me and [my husband], so if you need me, call me on his.

mom: Well that makes it a little bit better. I thought that maybe you were out with random friends.

me: Still though, I could always borrow their phones if I needed to. It’s not a big deal.

mom: ….Well ya, but if you get thrown into a trunk later tonight, wouldn’t it just be nicer to have your own phone?

      If somebody was going to be tossing me into a trunk I don’t think I would care who’s cell phone I had, as along as it worked!

      JefferyG, the more I read your comments, the more I think maybe someone should consider throwing you into a trunk, or a river, or something.

      it’s the little comforts that make the difference when you’re thrown in a trunk. :)
