Cell Phones
I remember the day when cell phones were not big at all. People would talk to people when they were at home. Now I can’t imagine to be “unreachable.” I remember when pagers were the huge thing. I never got into that because I thought it just was a waste. Life was so chill.
I did have plenty of friends who used a pager. Now those things seem like they are from the stone age. Craziness!
With constant travel and the need to be available at all times on the cell phone (who knows when Broadway will call), I found myself in search for the trick to manage my cell phone minutes so I wouldn’t have to worry about going over.

Then Verizon decided to lower the price for unlimited minutes. I jumped on it. It has made a huge difference in my business life. Yes, I do use my cell phone for work … probably more often than I use it for social matters. My biggest thing lately has been calling advertising agencies to find out if they have a department where I can submit my voiceover. As a performer, I really feel more and more allergic to all the food service and other random survivor jobs I have to do in-between jobs. I can’t stand them. As time passes, I feel like I only have room in my heart for the stage. Anything else feels like torture.
So, I am now beyond grateful for cell phones and the lower, more affordable unlimited minutes prices. It gets me so much closer to my dreams. Yay!
