My cell phone is just set up to ring, a plain old regular ringtone, no fancy-schmancy movie or television themes, or anything like that. When I don't want it to ring (which is most of the time), I just shut the phone off.
I just think you're freakin' out 'cause you have to fight someone prettier than you.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Crying Game (for one very special caller).
That's quite a special caller. Does he/she know that?
I believe we've never had the ringtone conversation before. Go us!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Does he/she know that?
He doesn't, but his friends do. It's possible I should not delight in his torment so, but ... eh. A girl's gotta have her fun somehow.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Over the weekend I bought a MIDI keyboard. So I googled for MIDI, trying to find songs to load into GarageBand. I was surprised to find that most of the matches were for cellphone ringtones.

Love the single ring. I don't hear everything, but it rarely embarrasses.
My old phone had a single beep setting which was great. I still haven't figured out something that satisfies on the new one. All of their telephone ring sounds are very artificial sounding, or overdone, or something. So for now, it's Fat Albert saying "Hey, hey, hey."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I am stunned by how often people's phones ring in class -- even on vibrate, if it's in your bag, that's distracting. Makes me nuts. I'm suprised more professors don't address it the first day of class.

FYI, it's SNAFU -- situation normal, all fucked up.

I can't even.
My cellphone plays the Two Towers theme. It works well as a geek identifier. Just after I downloaded it, I was in a restaurant and thought it was really cool that they were playing Lord of the Rings soundtrack as background music. The people at dinner with me thought it was hilarious as I returned my missed call, embarrassed.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I'm eating what is basically caf sushi for lunch too. It makes me want to go have real sushi for dinner.
Of course, looking at linoleum makes me want to go have real sushi for dinner.

Hey, I'm just trying to help.
So, my boss is now in a meeting, but he asked me to stay until 6. I usually leave at 5. I guess I'd better do some filing in his office, but that pretty much defeats the whole purpose of me staying -- so that he could call me. Eh.
