The 1700 Club

Jesus Christ. I spent over 28 hours on the phone last billing period? How is that possible? OK, I guess if I spent about an hour a day on the phone that's possible. But I think of my plan (which I went over last month) and I think there's no way I could reach the gabbing of the teenaged cheerleader in the commercial. I don't talk on my phone in the car, in fact I'm adamantly against it. I hate people who talk on the phone while they're out with friends: I usually leave my phone at home when I go out.

And yet here I am: over 1700 minutes in one month. Jesus fucking Christ.

Possible justifications:

(1) I was moving, so I was on hold with a bunch of utility companies trying to transfer and disconnect services.

(2) I've been going through this health mess, so I've often been on hold trying to get biopsy results.

(3) I've been on the phone with friends quite a bit talking about one and two.

OK, I'll take solace in the fact that this has never happened before and it will never happen again.

Jesus. Mary. And. Joseph.
