"P" is for...

"P" is for phone...my cell phone, that is....I think I have the coolest phone in the world! In reality, I am sure there are cooler phones out there...but I love mine...and it works for me...I love to Text a few of my really good friends(you know who you are) and I have a phone with a keyboard...so it is so much easier....I know, some of you are thinking 'How old are you? Texting? Are you serious?" Yes...I am ...and I do..=) The reason I chose this post for my letter "P" is the small little tidbit of info that I learned yesterday....I truly thought that this super cool phone had a super dee duper battery...because it would just never die...I mean, with me NEVER turning it off it would last for 7 days...No problem....Until my good friend, Lisa, shared this factual information with me yesterday....
She asked me the question, "Does your phone have a sleep mode?" Hmmmmm...I don't know if it does or not...I am not sure about the concept of "sleep mode"...so i say, "I have no idea....what does that mean?" She continued to explain that if the screen goes completely black, which mine does, it has a feature called 'sleep mode' which means that it isn't using the battery during this time....Hmmmmm....once again....So, maybe the coolest phone in the world doesn't have the super dee duper battery that I thought....It just knows how to reserve it's power!!!

So once again, I decided to google this word...and here is what I found....
Sleep Mode - Designed to conserve battery life, this mode automatically turns off a terminal after it has been unused for a specified period of time. The unit is reactivated when the keypad is touched.
There you go...I feel so educated this week....I think this lack of sleep is catching up with me...or Maybe Nicole is right...Maybe I have hung out with her so long...she is starting to rub off on me....Kidding, Nicole! Love ya!! At least my little knowledge mishaps have given me some inspiration for a few good blog posts....Tomorrow is the letter "Q"...I think I am just about over this ABC challenge....but I will trudge on to the end...even if you guys are done with it...I will come up with a "Q" that will knock your socks off!!! =) Basketball, homework, baths, and American Idol Results show...Gotta go....Have a good evening....
