You know that little thing you call Blackberry?
The expensive one. The one that lets you be online at all times. The one that all these corporate employees are addicted to? I need it.
Its for work. I swear.
Not to work but for me to take it to work with me. Why? Well because they are very inconsiderate at work and they don't allow us full Internet access. How is an Internet addict supposed to survive all those hours when you have restrictions? I'm sure you are going to say: "Well, by working Shanny" but honestly I don't like your answer. I want to be able to interact with my message board buddies and follow up with all your blogs, you do love comments don't you? I can't count the number of times I think of cool posts but by the time I get home I've forgotten them. It's quite irritating.
And its not like I wont concentrate at work. I only need it for when I'm on my lunch hour.... and the 15 breaks per day I plan on taking if I get one. That's all. You might wonder why I don't already have one if I'm an adult and clearly have an obsession with something I don't own. Well, that's because the husband says no. Boo! He is such a party pooper. So what if he pays for the cell plan? Or if he thinks I have no valid reason to have one? I will find a way to force him to agree that I need a Blackberry and hopefully surprise me with one. I know I can get it myself but I want the satisfaction of knowing he really does love me. I am after all going through tons of treatments to give him a child, I deserve a love token. I need to feel appreciated, ya know? (Yes, I'm trying to manipulate you Jeff lol)
But in all seriousness, I do need one, all professional bloggers do. Wouldn't you love one?
LOL you are so funny!
ReplyDeleteProfessional blogger? I love that! Jeff show your wife how much you love her, she has gone through some sad times trying to give you a child, and if you can get a two for one deal I would love the free one, thanks. :D
I love my blackberry! You think you are obsessed now? Wait until you get one, you always find a reason for a break while at work. By the way I agree, who wants to spend all their hours actually working, I don't like that idea either.
ReplyDeleteFunny post!
Good luck with your manipulation :)
I hate not having Internet at work too :(
ReplyDeletea blackberry or iPhone or anything that would keep me connected would make me happy. How dare work be so inconsiderate? Ha ha
I also find it annoying when I forget my blog ideas but what I really want it for is to be on facebook 24/7, I can't get enough.
Boo Jeff! Stop being a party pooper, a blackberry is a sexy accesory for girls, didn't you know? By the way, Shanny does have a valid reason, she is a professional blogger and the rest of us could really use her professional comments, we really do love them :)
ReplyDeleteLOL! Your post made me laugh. I was just tying to convince DH that when it was time for him to get a new cell phone he should just take mine and I'll get a "cool" new one. He said, "No! You DO NOT need to be on the internet at all times!" Fortunately for me I can be on at work...do you think he was refferring to the little time I do spend with him?
ReplyDeleteHa ha hilarious!
ReplyDeleteI want one badly too, I don't really need it but it would make me very happy to have one. Love your manipulation tactics, I hope it works!
I LOVE MY BLACKBERRY. Nough' said. It's amazing BUT I do check facebook entirely too much. I work for a company that does not allow us access to any social networking sites or personal e-mails and without my blackberry I would go insane. :)
ReplyDeleteI hope you get one, you won't regret it!!! You DESERVE it! :)
OMG I would die - DIE! - without unlimited access at work :)
ReplyDeleteFWIW, B and I both got Palms because the phone was the same $ as a "normal" phone, and the service was half the price of the Blackberry service (I think I only pay $15/ month for unliminted internet). I'm just sayin ;)
Yes, I want one. In fact, I need a blackberry for my survival lol I'm a big facebooker and I love Twitter!
ReplyDeleteHeyyy! I can't stand how they block everything at work...thats why i feel in love with my iphone. Internet is essential...not to mention im getting totally addicting to blogging! Good luck and get a blackberry, youll loveee it!
ReplyDeletep.s. how did you guess l.i.??? hehe
LOL! You have to get a Blackberry Shanny. If you have Verizon, check out the Blackberry Tour. I LOVE LOVE LOVE that phone :)
ReplyDeleteif we all petition on here, do you think it'll increase your chances? I really wanted a blackberry but I was vetoed too by DH...booo
ReplyDeleteI def would love one!! Haha, I read an article about how they are so helpful for event planners and I tried to talk my boss into it but it was a no go, haha! Maybe next year!
ReplyDeleteGirl, you deserve it! Get that blackberry :)
ReplyDeleteI'm not going to lie, I love my BlackBerry, but I think I am about to get an iPhone and have even more flexibility!
ReplyDeleteGet it, get it, get it!
ReplyDeleteI wanted a Blackberry because my husband had one, but I didn't want it with internet. I didn't think I could justify it during my day to day, and it was the only way to get the Blackberry. So, I said okay and got it, and the verdict is ... SOO very worth it. I am addicted to Google Reader and checking blogs all throughout the day. Splurge and get it, but not the Pearl because it doesn't have a full keyboard. And all professional bloggers need a full keyboard~! :)
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, I want to thank all of you for not only supporting my wife "emotionally" on this Blackberry journey, but I am even more floored to find out that you are all willing to chip in $20 this year to finally make this wonderfully sexy woman happy. Now, the power is in your hands...don't let her down :) - J
