Portable

n. – cell phone

My husband bought me an I-phone for Christmas. I have no idea how to use it properly and the French number I was assigned is the most random selection of digits that I fear I may never memorize it. They don’t give you a choice here – “pas le choix” which for a while was my pat answer every time someone asked how I felt about moving to Paris.

The I-phone comes with GPS which my husband was excited about since he knows I have no sense of direction. Of course, I’ve been warned at least three times about pick-pockets so between trying to figure out how to use the thing and then being terrified of getting mugged over it, I cast quite a pitiful figure hovering around the streets with eyes darting back and forth over my shoulder!
