I just had to show yall my new phone. It is fab and most importantly, it works! (i had to replace my other phone twice in 2 months, and even revert back to a vintage one that wouldn't text... the horror!!) Thank you, Verizon, for sending me a coupon so I could get a new phone!! It has a flip up keyboard, so now I am a super-texter!! (i know... such a sad life, right???)
