In which I do not like to touch!

So a couple of weeks ago, I wanted an android phone so I could be cooler, and also because I just like to change things once in a while to make my life more interesting.

Kim had just gotten a new cell phone when she opened an account on her return from Taiwan, so she gave me her old android phone from before she left the country, and I had my account switched over to the 'new' (to me) phone and started using it.

That phone had a touch keyboard, and it didn't take long for me to start hating that touch keyboard! I missed the buttons on my old Blackberry so much! I had the hardest time hitting the correct keys! I improved with practice, but it has never made me truly happy.

So today, with less than a week to go on my current phone contract agreementbeliever plan thingy, I went in and got a different phone. With a keyboard. I hope this phone will bring me the happiness I deserve!

What I'm knitting today:

I finished the sweater coat for Maddy, and I'm just working on a pair of socks for Scott in Lorna's Laces Shepherd yarn. The color is very Autumn-ey blend of oranges and browns, that I would not make for myself, but I bought it because the name of the color is Robot Overlord. You know I had to get that for Scott!

Oh, and I'm making a baby cardigan for a friend's baby with some sage green acrylic that I had in the yarn stash. It's an easy top-down cardi pattern that I have made so many of that I know the pattern by heart.

That's all the news for now.
