i hate my blackberry today…

by Nina on December 2, 2008

I left Brad’s apartment for a late lunch at Dog Deli Cafe (I think that is the name) after spending the morning working at the computer. {New Fact} I love Hot Dogs! I had a wonderful hot dog at this deli – the Super Dog. I finished my dog and sat there to enjoy the rest of my baked chips & fully-loaded Coca-Cola. {Blackberry blowing up} I start responded to text messages, emails, etc. Not noticing the VERY HANDSOME MAN that walked in the door right in front of me. I get up from the booth to throw my items away and NOTICE HIM. It was one of the moments where you are thinking “What the hell am I supposed to do now???” I froze… Ahhh! I could have walked over to the drink foundation and filled my cup up or asked him for directions WHICH is what I normally would have done without a second thought or without skipping a beat BUT oh NO, I have to be on the Stupid Blackberry!! I smiled and walked out of the deli, crossed the street, got into my car and drove to Michaels to buy Deco Color markers INSTEAD of sparking up a conversation and then enjoying coffee with the HM for the remainder of the afternoon. I wanted to RUN OVER my Blackberry!! I MUST pay attention to my surroundings and LEAVE the Blackberry in my purse more often, because I would like to wake up next to something much more attractive than my email machine at some point very soon. 

Blackberry meet the Inside of Handbag.

You guys will be spending a lot of time together moving forward.

I am debating about buying an iphone for that exact reason. I think I’ll on it too often and actually miss real life!

HA! i love it. sometimes, when things are awkward or i’m waiting on something and it’s super quiet or uncomfortable, i pull out the blackberry to act busy…rather than just stand there..you know? ooooh…blackberry’s…sooo bittersweet!

Hi there, I hope your purse and Blackberry decide to get along…we wouldn’t want any funny stuff going on in there.

Definately the right decision to purchase those puppies, I know you will not regret it! :)

Blackberry: be a good girl and stay in Nina’s purse, you may not come out when hot men are in the vacinity!

Miss you, friend. Hopefully we can catch up soon!

OH noooooo!! Maybe you’ll run into him randomly, and then you’ll have the best “how we met” story ever :)

I miss my Nina :( … We need to catch up soon and talk about your trip out here *squeal*!
