Closing in on a cell phone decision. (Just have to decide how much rural reception means to me.) (I mean, so what if I can't get a signal at Steve & E.J.'s crabbing cottage? Or in my brother's driveway? Or in parts of western Michigan, or pretty much anywhere in Georgia except Hotlanta? It's only a one-year contract, and I think I like the phone better, and it's free.)

It's these left-to-my-own-(cellular-and-noncellular-)devices contexts in which I am so hard-pressed to pick something and go with it. Malcolm Gladwell would hate to know that I read his book & am still this way.

Maybe I'll make March "rash March." Though it's not nicely alliterative, like "frugal February," it has some cool sound stuff of a fancier sort going for it. And it's hard to say three times fast, so I won't even say it---I'll just do it.

Maybe. But maybe I'll come up with something better for March.

I'll have to think about it.

russians are the answer!

we could go see the russians together -- they have both tmobile and cingular and they'll give you phones for cheap on both.

it's true that free phones are crap -- i've had two from tmobile and both were hideous.

One can get your phone free in several places now, actually. As one can fancier ones, with some hunting. The Russians are my last stop---maybe even today. I go armed with a wealth of deals available Out There; if they can compete, I'm theirs.

Frugal February me invoked her inner comparison shopper ad ridiculum. Rash March me will be perhaps a tad less than fully rash in benefitting from her research.

Ah, but the month is young...
