 Waiting For A Phone Call.

 Today was a good day because I received a phone call I had been waiting for about four or five months.  Something like that time period.  I had actually given up on the phone call, but I knew it was going to arrived within the next two weeks anyway, so why worry about a phone call when you knew the phone call would arrive anyway within the next two weeks.  I received the phone call at my living room desk, where one of my desktop computers is located, and where a 16 camera screen is located next to the computer screen.  Many people receive their phone calls on smartphones, and I do not even own a smartphone, or at least not yet.  Is that something to be ashamed of or not, I do not know.  But a smartphone sure would come in handy once in a while.  But I do own a cell phone and a G.P.S. for my car, so I believe that I am covered for traveling anyway.

 I have been shopping for a smartphone, in stores, esp. when I want to see if the people actually know something about smartphones and if they know how to sell smartphones too.  I think that most smartphone salespeople believe that the people walking into their stores to buy a smartphone should already know everything about smartphones, even if some of those people who want to buy a smartphone have never bought a smartphone before at any time in their lives.  Of course, there are those repeat buyers of smartphones who actually know what they are buying, so that saves the smartphone salespeople a lot of trouble, and time and energy having to explain smartphones to those repeat buyers of smartphones.

 So people like me have to go on the internet, or the world wide web, and do research before actually buying a smartphone because there is no way in heaven, hell, or on earth that the salespeople of smartphones are going to know, even if they did know, they will never have the time to explain all of the differences of the various smartphones on the market today.  For me, paying $700 for a phone to play games on, or to watch movies, or to chat with friends, not to mention the monthly service bills, is not worth the money.

 So I still have a landline phone and believe me, do I ever get my monthly usage out it.  But today the phone call was really important, and I had to be very careful with what and how I talked on the home phone because it was not a fun and games phone call.  To tell you the truth, I was mad as hell after the phone call, but that was because me and the caller were playing a real life serious game, together, and we were talking about how to win a real-life game; you know, instead of losing the game, a game, in life.  Phones are good for playing real-life games!

 I can only wonder how many phone calls are happening right now all around the world, in peoples lives, in governments, and in businesses every day and night.  And I can bet you a million dollars that someone was also waiting for a phone call today or tonight too.  I can bet you that there are billions of people all around the world waiting for their special phone call.  Or maybe they will settle for a simple email or a letter through the mail.
