He keeps calling me.
*in my best Julia Roberts a la Pretty Woman voice*...Stop callin me!!!
If he's got something to say, like if something is really wrong. Did he fall? Is he bleeding? Do the kids need a cast??
No...
We need bread.
Really? For bread, you make a phone call??
Seriously dude. Text me.
I got him a Blackberry for FatherDay. I am paying an extra $30 a month for him to be able to reach my via text, Blackberry Messenger, and Yahoo Messenger. He can even email me.
Instead. He calls.
sigh....
Later I was at the store. Talking to my BFF on the phone. She is the only person I know who doesn't have a cell phone. Her daughters have cell phones, I have sent texts to her daughters to get fast messages to her. Messages that don't require a phone call. So he called again but I didn't pick up. I sent him a Blackberry Message asking him if we needed anything else at the store. (I can do that WHILE I talk on the phone) He never answered so I figured it was fine, I shopped and left.
When I left the store, I wrapped up my phone call and listened to his voice mail. "Hey we need milk."
WHAT????
So I loaded the groceries in my car, and I went BACK in. Not before I called him. "Why didn't you message me back?"
"What?? I didn't get your text."
"Ok, I didn't buy you this phone and pay for the service for you NOT to check your damn messages!!!"
He told me I was wiggin. I DO NOT WIG.
I was irritated and you know, we don't need to have a phone call for EVERYTHING. You can text me- I'd prefer that you text me.
"Are you kidding me? You're rather that I TEXT you?"
And while maybe my answer was ridiculous, I answered truthfully. "Yes."
I could hear him shaking his head.
whatever....
just. text. me.
Look, I'm not saying that I never want to talk on the phone. I mean, I LOVE to talk on the phone. However, if you CAN say it in 160 characters or less... why not do just that?
srsly. kthnksbi.
