A New Toy Makes It Easier To Get One Item Off The List

My cell phone died a couple of weeks ago.  Well not really died, but started a very slow and unrepairable death.  The charging port on the side of my Samsung Blackjack broke.  Therefore I could no longer charge it... thus the slow death.  Being as the Dear Husband (DH) and I live on cell phones alone, it was necessary to replace the phone immediately.  

DH has had an iPhone since they came out, and loves it more than life. (somedays I think the list goes: dog, iPhone, wife).  so while shopping, I looked at the iPhone, among others.  The upgrade to my existing phone, which I loved, was $299.00 with a $100.00 rebate.  The iPhone was $199.00 with no rebate.  Given that I hate the way cell phone companies do rebates (a gift card instead of a check) I opted for the iPhone.  LOVE IT!  I love making personal ringtones for people (or okay, having them made for me, thanks DH), I love the IM style text messaging, and I love having some of my favorite songs right there for my listening pleasure.  

Now, you may wonder, what does this have to do with my list.  One of the items on my list is "Watch An Affair To Remember," and I can store videos on my iPhone as well!  So voila, An Affair To Remember is now on my iPhone, and I can watch it when I'm stuck places (like the oil change place) or on long car trips, or airplane rides.  

I'll let you know how it goes, watching it on the tiny screen, and how I like the movie once I'm done...
