Old School

Do you have cool ringing goodness on your phone? I don’t. If you dial me up you won’t be entertained by any catchy tune that I have downloaded. If you are with me and my phone rings, you will just have to endure whatever default noise the iPhone comes with. When you leave me a message you’ll have to do so after listening to the very unimpressive, “Hi. It’s me. Leave a message” spiel.

Yeah, I guess I’m just old school. And it’s not that I don’t want to be like all the cool people that have the catchy waiting-for-someone-to-pick-up-your-call music, or hip new Fergie ring tones, or clever voice mails (it’s totally not that). I just haven’t really got to it yet. You probably have got to it but that’s because you are way cooler than I am.

But, do you want to know what the crazier thing about all this is? Here is the proverbial kick in the shorts: My mom is all up to speed on that stuff and I’m not. (Then again my mom is hipper than most). Nonetheless, it still confirms that I must be boring and not hip to the scene.

Anyway. What’s your ring tone? I know you have something really great. Will you have something cool for me to listen to while I’m waiting for you to answer when I call? Do you have a nifty something for your voice mail message? Or are you old school too? Do tell.

    I used to have “You Reign” by Hillsong United, but it got set to the default iPhone “marimba” when I downloaded the latest software update. I haven’t bothered to change it back!

    Yeah, I actually had a cool ringtone too. When “maps” stopped working I had to take my phone back to default settings and now I have Mariba as well. Cheers!

    I love the blues piano. How much cooler is that than the old ring-a-ling? Why do we need more?

    Good seeing you too Hana! Thanks for stopping by. It’s good to see someone who does what they say they will do. And I will definitely keep you posted on any upcoming gigs.
