A personal blog, named in honor of the novel Petticoat Government by a favorite author, Emma Orczy. The novel is about a fictional woman, Lydie d'Aumont, who attempts to inject some fairness and good governance into the court of France's Louis XVth despite the corruption and selfishness there.

Back on the telephonic leash...
I haven't had a cell phone since December 2007. It's rarely been inconvenient to be without one, and I've enjoyed the freedom. However, tonight dh found a deal too good to pass up: a $20 prepaid Nokia camera phone from T-Mobile. Now that my daughter is in school part-time, it will give me some peace of mind knowing that the school can reach me when I'm not at home. We don't use cell phones much, so prepaid minute cards are sufficient and economical for us. There is one thing I have resolved not to do now that I'm going to have a cell phone again: I will not text while driving...traffic moves much faster in Colorado Springs than in metro Manila!
