I hate texting.
I hate everything about it.
I hate the abbreviations people use.
I hate the time it takes me to reply to a text.
I hate the noise my phone makes when I receive a text.
I hate the people walking around seemingly unaware of anything going on except the phone in their hands.
I hate sitting in doctors' offices and watching all the people texting back and forth in their little bubbles never looking up.
I hate the fact that I got called two times today from a "text to land line" comedy club in California like I'm going to actually go all the way there to catch an act...seeing that I live in ALABAMA!
I hate all those people driving around texting, putting me and everyone else in danger because they feel compelled to read - and text back as soon as humanly possible...because heaven knows keying in a reply is worth more than anyone's life.
Most of all, I hate the fact I am guilty of actually doing that last one.

(This is Day 7 of Nicky and Mike's "30 Minus 2 Days of Writing" non-contest contest over at "We Work For Cheese". Today's prompt was "Texting". Please check out the other blogs over there...but ignore all the ones on the list which were posted before mine...and after. Yes...do that. ;) That would be a good thing to do.)
