Whining About Cell Phones, Again....

Well, it's a cold and rainy Monday. The mountains get snow, but since we're in the foothills, we get the runoff. Yuck! Anyhow, to get to the point of yet another complaint about cell phones, I'll begin.

I'm sitting in the waiting room of my daughter's counselor, when the LOUDEST, most ANNOYING cell phone goes off. Embarrassed woman reaches into oversized bag to retrieve phone, which by now is on its fourth ring. (Yeah, I know, slow reflexes). She begins yabbering LOUDLY into the mouth piece. By this time, everyone in the waiting room knows that "someone" has a fever and it is some kind of a virus. Well, she gets off the phone, and we are back to waiting in the quiet room, with the dim lights.

Not five minutes have passed when the SAME annoying ring tone at the SAME annoying decibels occurs. Woman has improved her reflex time, as we only have to endure this twice! This time the whole waiting room finds out that "she has a virus, but she's only got claws on her two front feet".

All this noise and interruption, and we're listening to someone talk about a friggin' cat!!!!!! Can you believe it??!!

Woman goes on to suggest, and I'm dead serious about this......"pet diapers"!!!!! What??!!! Apparently this is so the cat doesn't have to be confined.

Now, I love, love, love kitty cats, but I draw the line at kitty diapers!! If kitty is pooping all over the house, because of whatever illness, kitty is getting stuck in the bathroom or some other small area with a huge liter box and a gaggle of newspapers.

The point to my story today, I guess, is this:

If we are in a waiting room at a counselor's, we have bigger problems than your stupid cell phone and your cat's incontinence! Put your phone on vibrate, then go OUTSIDE when you get the call about "kitty"!!!!
