Work In Progress

Forgive the messy and non-cohesive state of the blog right now. After a nine month leave of absence I decided some housekeeping was necessary and I decided to take on the task myself rather than hirer a designer. It's a slow process, but it'll get done eventually and will look ah-mah-zing.

Why I Hate My Bluetooth

I have a wireless bluetooth in my car.  We have a love/hate relationship.  I love it because it means I don't have to hold my phone while driving.  Plus, it's voice activated, so I also don't have to try and read the screen while I should be paying attention to the road.  I hate it because....well, this is why...

Just to make this easier to follow, to call someone I push a button and say the person's name.  The bluetooth woman then repeats the name to me and I push the call button to call the person.

Me: (Push Button) Stonewall

BlueTooth: Deb

One more thing: Stonewall's real name is about as far from Deb as "Stonewall." In fact, his name sounds nothing like any other name in my phonebook.

Me: (Cancel Button, Push Button) Stonewall

BT: Danielle

Me: (Cancel Button) Are you deaf? (Push Button) Stone Wall

BT: Mom

Me: (Cancel Button) Friggin' are you kidding me?! (Push Button) STONE WALL!

BT: Deb

Me: (Cancel Button) Did I f*****g stutter? (Push Button) SSStttooonnneeewwwaaalllllll

BT: Pardon?

Me: (Cancel Button) SERIOUSLY?!  (Push Button) STONEWALL!

BT: Pardon?

Me: (Cancel Button) AAGGGGHHHHH! (Push Button) Stonewall!

BT: Pardon?

Me: (Cancel Button) Pardon this f**kwad! (Push Button) Stonewall!

BT: Stonewall

Me: Holy mother of!! It's about flippin' time. (Push Cancel Button by accident.) NO! Call call call!! (As I repeatedly push the call button)

BT: Pardon?

This is what I want to do to my bluetooth:

I like cussing at my phone just to see who it thinks I want to talk to but yeah it really gets on my nerves too.

Lol Nate has a BlueTooth and he always has issues with his, too. I just don't see the point, lol.

I have bluetooth in my car as well. Like you said, it's great to have when answering a phone call and for the simple fact that you don't have to hold onto the phone constantly. I haven't had a problem with it so far, buuuttt.. that could be because i havent set up my contacts yet. haha.

Not looking forward to the joys and complications of trying to call someone through bluetooth!

I have the handsfree bluetooth in my car also and it never gives me problems!

Only once it did, I was trying to show it off to some family and friends and I was like LOOK! I just push this button and say "Muscles" and it calls. Lady in the box (whom we refer to as Phyllis) states back to me "Remove all contacts?" I was like aahhh no no no haha

I've never used a bluetooth. I just can't see using it and I think it would be such a hassle.

Even More A(muse)ment
