When I was a kid, I asked for walkie talkies (so my next door neighbor and I could talk after lights out). Tin cans and a string would have worked better. Maybe they were sabotaged by my parents.

I have always thought walkie talkies were the coolest things. I always wanted them.

Well, walkie talkies are kind of like phones.
1)I just sit and watch re-runs of old tv series that I watched already.2)I read magazines
3) Read random stuff on the internet
4) Play video games
Sundays are perfect days for dull days.
I hate when people stand in the check-out line and talk on those Nextel talkie devices. Hate it.
I don't like that, either. There is something about that beep then talking that grates my nerves. I want real walkies talkies and to talk on them while camping or when I was 10.
I talk about the weather to work colleagues in the elevator.

Or, dare I say, talk work in the elevator with weather colleagues.
How about talking about work colleagues and the weather to the elevator?
Good time to work on your elevator speech. You know . . . in the elevator.

Sorting my beads
Alphabetizing my books
Cleaning my closet
Organizing just about anything...especially my craft room
Baking
Slowly shopping in Office Depot, looking at all the pens and organizers and stuff.
Riding in the car while someone else drives, but doesn't talk to me. I just like to ride, listen to the road and make up stories in my head.
I may have high functioning autism...

We are frighteningly the same, Amelia.There might be pictures...oh, no. Just the ones from when I got inside the lifesize, roped off gingerbread house made of real candy at that one hotel.
Did you lick it?

No but I had a giant lifesaver in my purse the next day so apparently, I thought I might later.
Ah, you stole part of it! You rebel.
I sit on my front porch for fun. Sometimes a car drives by. That adds a little excitement. I am also a rebel without a clue for I have no cell phone. But I do have a pair of walkie talkies.
Walkie talkies are much more fun...provided someone else has one of them.
Amelia wrote: "Walkie talkies are much more fun...provided someone else has one of them."You're probably right. But sitting with one in my right hand and and one in my left, talking to myself can be quite interesting. ;)
Don't they make a static noise if they're too close when turned on?
So, Sunday I saw this dude in his convertible chatting away on his "cell"...it was this giant thing, like the old metal rotary dial phone my gran used to have with two great round nobs on each end, and covered in this blue rubberized stuff like I've seen on dumbells.

This! Only, darker, more royal blue.
Why?
Easier to hold between your head and shoulder?

If I ever get a cell phone, I need that accessory ;) I'd feel much more comfortable.

You could try a sexy little dance move.
i bought my son one of those phones. made by koshi i think. i did it because he is fun and he had a blast getting a phone call and taking this thing out of his backpack at a coffee shop and talking. he would walk down the street talking on this. it is a novelty but he had great fun for a minute with it. i buy my kids a fun goofy gift like this at christmas every year. but in all seriousness, my son wears hearing aids and this phone actually is easier to talk on for him than putting a flat cell phone covering his whole ear and feeding back. anyway, this was a fun little fad phone that came from japan where all new trends start

For the hearing aid benefit, I can buy that...
But, like the Hello Kitty backpack, I will personally leave it to the 12 year old Japanese girls. :)

i didn't buy it for the hearing aid benefit, but rather for the fun factor. and it was fun for a minute and he enjoyed it.
