I just can't figure out the allure of "texting". I just sent my first ever text and it's a pain in the neck!
I've got a question for my brother so I gave him a call. His phone rang and I got his voice mail as I often do. He's in LA so he's three hours behind and sometimes busy at work still when I try to call him so I didn't leave a message and figured I'd call him back later on. A few minutes later I get this strange tone from my cell phone. I didn't know what the heck it was so I looked at it and it said I had received a text. Well after figuring out just HOW to view it the message said...
"I tivo'd the game so I want to watch it later".
I completely understand that he doesn't want to know what's happening but I really needed to talk to him. I wanted to reply and just say that I wouldn't mention the game. I was finally able to figure out how to reply but it's a complete pain in the neck! Isn't just dialing someone and TALKING to them a much quicker and simpler way to have a conversation? I think it is.
How many of you out there text?
I for one DON'T and never plan on doing it again!
