I remember when Roscoe first came into my life. I felt so complete, so...happy. He was everything I was looking for in a phone and more. He was cute, efficient, sleek and well, he became part of the family from day one.
Monday Musings was broadcast through Roscoe, always, even after Phillip came on the scene. I would plug in the headset and set him down and just not have a care in the world. You cannot dispute the awesomeness that was Roscoe during my radio show.
But I could tell in this last year that he was knocking on phone heaven's door. I tried to deny it and told myself, "He can make it to another season of Monday Musings. He can. He has to!" It pains me to know how wrong I was.
It hurts even more to know that my clumsiness is what sent him over to the darkside- after checking in with Mami he fell from my sweaty hands, and as he plummeted to his absolute demise. I tried to rush to him and catch him before he touched ground, injuring myself in the process. But I missed. He fell. And died.
Loyal readers, I have to make the long treacherous journey to the Verizon store today and see about replacing Roscoe, a task that is near impossible. No phone could EVER replace him. He was the best thing that ever happened to mobile phones. He was like family.
I will miss him everyday of my life.
Be well, Roscoe.
xoxo,
Jaded + Family

I was going to make a crazy joke until you said the baby cried. Kids crying is not funny unless they did something dumb.
PEACE to that Bitch A$$ phone. Lucky my glass of wine never got to ya!
Tell them kids to Buck up we're from Brooklyn, no tears in BROOKLYN!
two phones in one year... it must be hard for you... accept my cellular condolences... my Dash died a couple of months ago. The grief is still there. I always think i can revive him, but all i have is faith and hope. *texts a @}-} (rose) to drop on the coffin*
Smh.
This kinda reminds me of when Rudy's fish died on The Cosby Show, except this passing is more dramatic. I sure wish Barbara Walters could have been able to get an exclusive interview with Roscoe. I imagine, all the things that could have been revealed.
Hmm. Upon second thought. You didn't kill Roscoe, did you? I need to see the coroner's report.
I cant with that picture... fool you took the time to make it a casket??? I am so glad that thing is gone gone gone... he's lucky he made it that far cuz I've been trying to throw him out of windows from the first day I met him.
