Huh. It makes me crazy to exchange 6 texts (while being charged for each one) when a 30 second phone call would do.
Seriously! Gah.
Texting is not for conversations
It is for the people who don't get charged for each text.
Joyce: Dawn, you be good. Xander: We will. Just gonna play with some matches, run with scissors, take candy from some guy, I don't know his name.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Text conversations with my sister are cheaper than calling her in Jamaica, especially on the cell, and can take place in a disjointed fashion, at our convenience, instead of having to take place at a time when we are both free. Love it.

Our wings are not tired.
Oh, totally agree with the conversations thing with texting. I think that's why I like texting so much---it's easier to send specific information (like an address). I also like that it's there to refer to if I need it (again with the address example). I don't use texts for conversation - I save that for in person (since, again, my loathing for the phone...).
Full disclosure: I do not pay for my phone plan - my company does. I know they bought the employees an unlimited text plan, and that's about all I know about our company plan.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
ita, did you see the naked wet guy I linked to?

Dana - this is a fine place to rant. And I haven't been following the whole debate very closely. My feelings on this are a little too close to the surface and that is me. PLEASE, please discuss. I'd rather hear opinions here than elsewhere.

I did, tommy, and thanks for thinking of me. I've had him up for a while. He's very pretty.

Ugh. One of my friends started talking about how much he hated being a corporate drone. We tried to make him feel better by saying "hey, here are all of the things that you get to do becuase you have a steady job instead of freelance catering" his response "thanks for making me feel bad about whining. KISSES!" My response "Okay, next time we'll just ignore you"
