The iPhone Mom (Because it's not your husbands iphone)


My nickname is MacMama and 'i' love anything Apple! Yes, I'm a MacHead! Years ago, Gavin, (who was born a MacLover,) finally talked me into trashing my old PC and switching over to the world of Mac. 'i' remember the whole experience as if it were yesterday. It was really scary, like standing on a cliff and leaping through the air. By the way, we use to do that at Lake Powell until they made it illegal to cliff jump ---the art of plummeting from any cliff into the water. My ultimate fear of heights kept me from jumping off any cliff in Lake Powell, and 'i' felt the same sheer panic when 'i' thought about abandoning my PC.

"Mom, just switch to Mac, you won't be sorry," Gav nagged. So finally 'i' did it, 'i' closed my eyes, made the leap, called the Apple store, and purchased my first PowerBook G4. 'i' only had to open the box and turn it on and 'i' fell in love. I've been a MacHead ever since. In fact when the new MacBook Pro came out, 'i' sold my PowerBook G4 and bought the Pro.

Since that time Apple has become my world. My family all complains that 'i' spend more time on my Mac than 'i' do with them. 'i' think there are some serious jealousy issues going on!

When the first iPhone came out, MacGav was the first on the waiting list. La tee da dee da!!! I was second. Ok, so we weren't really first and second, but we jumped all over the new Apple iPhone as soon as we caught a glimpse of it. 'i' was a T-mobile subscriber until MacGav told me all about the iPhone. (MacGav is like the Prophet in my Apple World!) 'i' couldn't get to the AT&T store fast enough. 'i' ran right over secured a family plan and signed us all up.

That's it the rest is history. We're a MacFamily now ---we're all over anything with an apple and an 'i'!

A week or so ago my MacHead son called me up and proceeded to tout his latest purchase. What planet had 'i' been living on? 'i' hadn't even heard about the new iPhone4. 'i' gave Gavin a hot tainted lecture for not keeping his precious mother informed, and promised him there would be serious repercussions if he didn't tell me how to order one immediately. I'm old, 'i' need help with these things.

I'm now waiting for the white iPhone4 to come out in August. It's torture seeing MacGav and Caroline touching and fondling their new iPhone4's (grrrrr). 'i' wanted one so bad 'i' was tempted to order the black, but being a practical woman, and loving white like 'i' do, I'm painstakingly waiting for my favorite color to make it's debut. I'm telling you, it's torture being practical!

Check out a new site 'i' found. "The iPhone Mom," 'i' just know I'm her kindred spirit, cause I'm definitely an iPhone mom too. Have fun watching this new promo on the iPhone4 ---I'm warning you though, you're going to want one!

Go on take the leap! Buy one today! Even Man With A Drill is going to get one! Imagine, (prehistoric,) Man With A Drill owning his own iphone! Hahahaha, it will take me a year to teach him how to turn it on. Sorry honey, I know you take undue harassment about your techno skills. It's just so fun teasing you.

We sell them to T-mobile users like you Jason! They are the hottest things on the market. Leave the dark side my running friend! Come to AT&T and get yourself updated! You need an iPhone4! If you get one we can video chat and you can show me how to run faster! PS saw a great picture of you on Mammoth, Speedy!
