"Mamamamamamama? DOAG! Phone? Hoho?"

Gawd, I'm old.

Why does that make you feel old? That a 2 year old is using a cellphone (badly?)

My SIL started whining that she couldn't believe she was 24. She got no sympathy from the other members of the party at the time (26,29, 60, 63.)

Doag is how D says dog. We're not sure if it is an accent or just toddler.

That a 2 year old is using a cellphone (badly?)

Yes. Because I still won't even buy one of my own. And anyone else's I use, I treat like someone who's never held a newborn before. I'm not a technophobe, but cellphones...let's just say, I'm Giles.

Why are they doing that this week? Not nice when they leave us with a cliffhanger for two weeks!

Ummm, was that Victoria talking about how upset she'll be with ugly American behavior ?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Wanna feel older, maybe? Burrell's Frankie was gnawing cheerily on my iPod's iSkin, and then she put it up to her ear and waved hello, which is how she seems to use the phone. Like she uses her phone.

I don't have a cellphone. I nearly fell over when I found out my dad (the 63 year old) got one. For search and rescue coverage (they work better in some places due to the multitudes of repeaters than the usual vhs radios.)

I've used 'em, but I'm one who freaks out using them.

Until recently, the nephew mainly chewed on the cellphone antennae.

OK, maybe not so old. I thought "Doag" was a slightly older youngun's rendition of "Dog", as in "Snoop-doggy-..."

Then I realized that Snoop is like so 1994. Then I felt old, some more.

Heh. No, Gus, Dominic's favorite musical group is (are?) the Wiggles. Fruit Salad, Do the Spaghetti...or something like that. I'm still trying to erase my brain. Goddamn childrens' songs are too damn catchy and sticky. Second might be No Doubt and some of Gwen Stefani's solo work, however.
