I'm almost as un-techno as Shootingstar. I have a cell phone, with a nice At&T contract because my husband got an I Phone in August. He drives me crazy with it... checking his email and just "having to" find something on the web when he doesn't need to. Last weekend I had to yell at him to put it away when we were at cycling friend's house for dinner. We don't usually exchange heated words, but I was mad!
My cell phone is never on, unless I have to make a call when I am out of the house, which is maybe once a month? I don't know how to use any of the functions on the phone. In fact, I had just figured out my last phone, when I had to give it up. Needless to say, I don't text. I really don't feel the need to talk to people that often! I will call or email if I need to. On the other hand, my husband doesn't text, either. A couple of his employees text him once in awhile and he'll reply, but he doesn't initiate it. My older son is the king of texting. His girlfriend lives in NY during the week and this is how they communicate during the day.
A funny related story. On Monday, one of my classes was cancelled. The professor emailed early AM, saying she would make a definite decision by noon and send another email. Well, I had to leave to get into the city at 10:30, so when I was eating lunch at the university, I checked my messages on one of the public computers, to find out that yes, the class was cancelled. When I went to my first class (before the cancelled one) one of my classmates came rushing in, telling me that she tried to text me about the later cancellation, only to find out that the number she had for me was a land line! Can you imagine the horror?
