I Hate Change, Sometimes

(My New Phones)

Sometimes I hate change.

Even though the darling Mr. AT&T

came last week and put in new phone

lines for us, we still had some static.

My phones were about 8 years old and

have been dropped no less than a

thousand times. It was time, past time

to get new ones. But I hate change!

Not so much change,

I guess, maybe it's the fact

I have to read the directions on

how to use new ones.

Maybe that's the real problem.

I just hate reading directions,

unless it's in a cookbook.

But I am kind of excited

because when the phone rang

today, it talks! It told us who

was calling! Apparently these phones

work with the caller I D. It's going

to be interesting if it tells us

there is a Telemarketer on

the other end.
