I just got the May/June issue of Relevant Magazine in the mail. I love Relevant. It’s hip without being blatantly liberal. I’m not sure if I’ll renew my subscription whenever it’s time, but, for now, I like it.
However, I’m starting to feel left out of the reading experience. Apparently, smart phones can scan these square bar code things and find content online. I don’t have a smart phone. I’m not likely to get one any time soon, either. Here’s why:
Without apologies, I am a conservative spender. I don’t want to spend, like, any money. When the desire for an item–or, um, the need for an item–is greater than the hope to spend no money, I wilt and spend. This happens regularly for things I need: electricity, car fuel, loan payments, and food. For entertainment purposes, The Hunk and I have an internet subscription and Netflix. I already pay for unlimited internet at home; why the heck should I pay for it on my phone, too? AND on his phone? That’s way too pricey.
I guess, for now, I’ll stick to being left out of the loop.
I’ll go read a book, or something…
I’m all alone; there’s no one there beside me…
