Ring Ring

Sometimes I long to the pre cell phone time. That wonderful era where you could be out of reach for a whole day and didn't need to make any excuses.

Today it seems you have to be reachable anytime, anywhere. Otherwise you have to deal with a variation of the following conversation 'No, I"m not ignoring you... I just didn't feel like talking... No you don't have to take that personal...'. Pff, you would almost long for simpler times...


Making it lovely

But then I receive a text from my boyfriend and it doesn't seem that bad afterall...

lovely photos. and i'm with you, being thoroughly contactable all the time is very annoying. i do long for simpler times. but with super-fast broadband of course.

beautiful photos, i especially love the first one. somehow, a pink cell phone doesn't quite have the same effect.

i was at antique shops the other day ogling old rotary phones. remembering the wonderful time i used to have as a kid just dialing a number (probably not even calling someone). i don't mind cell phones (b/c no one ever calls me) but they just aren't as charming as old phones.

calling all designers: take on the charge of making a charming looking phone!
