Talked to Farrah, Eric H., Corey, and Leigh (who added me to Facebook) about things... yay for them!
Friday Five - THE PHONE1. Could you live without your phone for one week for $500? I've done that very recently, but it wasn't voluntary. Possibly I could do it voluntarily, but Eric H. did say it's one of the essentials of life. Let's just say yes for now, due to my precarious financial situation. :P
2. Whom do you talk to on the phone the most? Brother, I guess.
3. Whom do you no longer talk to on the phone, but wish you still did? Alex!
4. If you could get ahold of one celebrity phone number, whose digits would you want? Bono, as he is an intelligent man with a lot of worthy things to say.
5. Do you talk on the phone more or less than you used to? Less, definitely. That's fine by me, though!
