I keep grabbing a portable battery to use as my iPhone in case you’re wondering how I’m doing on 4hrs of sleep. #nightbrain
Do you know how fun it is to try and buy tickets for an event for your kids who don’t have their own cell phone, and have them be able to go without you having to also go? It’s 2-3 hours of Ticketmaster fun.
