Texting

Ok so my pet peeve of the day are people who use text messaging as an instant messenger. Folks, although I do enjoy texting just as much as the next person, and do agree its a great way to say a few quick things like "are you going out", "do you want to grab a bite to eat", "how are you?" or even just a quick hi but i can also be annoying when its a dragged out conversation with your phone glued to your hands. At least with a phone call I can use my headset and walk around doing other things while talking. With texting, Im usually in the middle of doing some work online, researching things, or many other things that I do.

So as much as I love getting text messages, theres a line between a text and a chat. Please feel free to send a quick message for something that doesnt require a phone call, but if it goes more than 5 texts, its usually time to call.

Ok, my quick moment of ranting....Phew, Im done
