I friggin hate talking on the phone. I love texting. Quick, easy, doesnt require a bunch of crap like "hey, how are you?" I'm good, you?" "oh great, glad to hear that, hows the kids?" blah blah blah. We know texting and the internet are killing social skills. Some of us still have them when needed, we just dont have time for nonsense BS.

I love my smart phone. I always have access to the internet, google maps and whatever else I need to find my way, find business or addresses, answer a question before I forget it as I too suffer from CRS (like this weekend J and I were discussing which egyptian god was the falcon headed one, and voila, just break out the phone and google it ). You know, things you MUST have/know, right now.
My sister.

Seriously.

I can call a buddy, catch up on his life, make plans for our next meet-up, discuss any other pertinent issues and still be off the phone in under 2 minutes.

See, everyone thinks women are good communicators... Men are the MASTERS... I'll talk to one of my buddies and know exactly everything I need to know in under 2 minutes... ONSSP will ask me, "what did they say about this?... what did they say about that?... did you ask them about...?"

I didn't ask, I don't know, and no... Conversations usually go like this:

Sup?
Sup.

all good?
all good.

you?
all good.

cool.
yup.

later.
peace.

Fundamental difference between men and women... Men don't give a fuck about the details... all women care about are the details.
