My problem with home phones was the fact that I couldn't keep up with plans.
For example, I would tell my friend "Oh, I'll be there in the mall at 2:30. Just wait in the food court."
Normally, I'm ready by the time I say that, but my mom is like:
-Oh let me shower real quick. Don't worry it'll be fast!
Okay mom...
45 minutes later, I finally get in the car.
-I'm hungry, do you want something to eat?
No mom, I'm gonna eat with my friend.
-Oh, well I'm hungry, let me get McDonald's real fast and we'll be on our way.
Sigh... okay mom.
-That's some good food! :D Oh, I need to get money from the bank. Let me turn around real fast, there's a bank nearby.
Sigh...... okay mom, but hurry up, I'm gonna be late.
-Sure. (She takes her sweet time and we take off from the bank) Oh man, there's traffic. Ufff... LOTS of traffic. This is going to take forever.
Ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...... @_@
-You know, when you want me to take you places, you should tell me earlier that way we don't have to take this traffic.
BUT MOM! YOU MADE ME TAKE THIS LONG!
-NO, THIS IS ALL YOUR FAU-
Uggghhhhhhhh *dies*
And when I FINALLY get there, my friend is all mad at me. >_>
