She texted back, saying she hoped it was not for too long. Then I texted her back to explain my situation, and, fortunately, one of us called the other one, and we talked, like real, live humans. <br /><br />As it turns out, she is pretty much the only friend I have who neither reads my blog nor is on Facebook, so she did not know my situation. Seems like a ringing endorsement for something other than mobile or internet communications!<br /><br />You are so right about people responding to messages yet not the phone. I now have two friends who are notorious for this. About the only thing that texting is good for is a birth announcement or to forward funny sports things. Of course email would work just fine!Faciehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12165861407055831754noreply@blogger.com
