My Cell Phone

 

Ugh, a necessary evil. There’s no living without it anymore. My cell phone is both a lifeline and a leech—always in reach, always demanding attention. I use it for everything: endless surfing, learning strange and fascinating facts I never thought to wonder about, staying entertained, staying distracted. It’s a tool, a toy, and sometimes a trap. I even keep my old landline, just in case I misplace it—so I can call my cell phone from my home phone and follow the ring like a bloodhound. Isn’t that something? Technology ruling the day, but I still rely on the clunky relic from the past just to keep up with the sleek gadget of the present.
