This was a fun read for me—thank you. I related on several levels (such immediate, though fortunately fleeting, panic whenever I drop my phone; thank goodness for my Otter cases). I especially appreciated reading these lines:
<<You could lie but you couldn’t play a hand of Texas hold ‘em to save your life. Stevie Wonder could see your tells. You bow your head and admit, “yes, I dropped my phone.”>>
I have no poker face capacity, and while occasionally I wish that I did, I am grateful that I do not. Balderdash (a board game once played with some colleagues) is something else altogether, and requires a type of creative fabrication I could get behind, but ultimately the bluff, it just doesn’t feel good to me. Really fun piece. 🤓📱🌈✨

Thanks, Veronica!! Really appreciate it. I was going to add a line about Otter cases but forget to 😅
I had fun writing this one! Glad you had a fun time reading it 🙂
Astute observation!!!
📞🙂
A fun and engaging read.
I love what you implicitly said through the story.
Also, this line made me giggle: “Without your phone what personality remains?”
Great work :)
Next article is going to be similarish but about Netflix.
Thanks for your kind words, Michael!
