The end of the saga

I swore the last blog about SS’s stupid phone would be the last, But I just needed to share this crap- 

For those that were concerned...after 8 tortuous days, SS got his replacement phone!! Turns out a 12yr Old won’t die without a phone for 8 days! I walked in the door and he says, Hey Step-girlfriend, look what came today! And held up his new phone. I resisted a snarky comment (because I’m strong like that), and said, cool, are your shakes gone now? Because, withdrawals from not having a phone for 8 whole days... Ok maybe I didn’t totally resist the snarky comment, but I didn’t say what I wanted to at least. 

Anyway, the point- My SO came to hang out with me when I got home, actually excited to see me, and was telling me about how he was sleeping after work today and thought he may need to sign for the phone and was “so worried he wouldn’t wake up when it was delivered” that he just couldn’t sleep. *world’s biggest eye roll* Really, you are THAT worried about SS getting his phone?? I just said, Mm...and changed the subject. Cause, IDGAF. 

To SS’s credit, later I asked if he had thanked his dad for paying the $100 to get him a new phone. He actually said he did. I said good, and told him how most kids wouldn’t have gotten a new phone that fast. I know kids who waited months.  His mouth fell open (the horror!), and he said, really???

Yes SS, not everyone gets the latest brand-new technology instantly handed to them, but you wouldn’t know about that would you??
