Corwin lost his cell phone quite a while ago. He naturally hadn’t kept it charged up so it could be sitting just out of sight somewhere in the house. Or maybe it was stolen, or just dropped somewhere. Corwin tried to fake concern but he’s just not very good at it. It was much more inconvenient for Mom and me because we couldn’t just leave him places and have him call when it was time to return (such as, for instance, a day long merit badge workshop).
Mom decided that the proper solution was for Corwin to buy Mom a new phone and then could have Mom’s old phone. They took care of that on Saturday after the merit badges. Mom now has a groovy new phone with groovy new features, which someday she may use when she has time to read the manual.
Mom did get the cell phone company to switch numbers so that she and Corwin still have the same phone numbers. My response has been to try and arrange a pool on when Corwin will lose this phone. I thought about involving his friends and fellow Scouts but I figured that was just too much temptation.
I can’t believe Josh has held onto his for this long.…Jake is way more responsible with his.
