i love the phone and talk on it all the time id talk for easily an hour a day at least, particularly when im driving, swimming in the pool, or cleaning the house
i have too many friends to only be with in person, and many of them live in different states. currently one of my best friends is someone i have clocked up maybe 6 hours of being with in person, compared to 600 (or whatever) on the phone
I'm using around 2000 cell minute a month right now. At least half of it is with my sister. My favorite person to talk to though isn't really a phone person but cares about me enough to tolerate my chatter.
