I can find something to talk about in person partly because I wave my arms around and have ridiculous facial expressions that are totally lost on a phone call and partly because I think there should be something "exciting" to talk about like it still costs 25 cents a minute so we can't just chat about the weather and what you had for lunch.Therealvdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03093845623642815813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8679304203742128093.post-27098077768097472212014-07-23T15:56:35.704-04:002014-07-23T15:56:35.704-04:00It's not easy for me to chit chat.

I think I was 12.<br /><br />Maybe you could come up with a list of things to ask about... sports, weather now vs. the last time you talked... crazy neighbors?<br /><br />Tony calls me on the phone every day on his way home and asks how my day was (seriously... he'll be home in 15 minutes, you'd think he'd just save it... but I secretly think he's trying to see what mood I'm in) and I tell him "fine". When that wasn't good enough I went into PAINFUL detail of EVERY STINKING LITTLE THING. <br /><br />Funny. Now he only asks if I need him to pick up anything on the way home. :)Julihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10097214923216967086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8679304203742128093.post-71906680608413723212014-07-08T08:34:46.898-04:002014-07-08T08:34:46.898-04:00My sister and I have a video chat a couple times a...My sister and I have a video chat a couple times a month, and they last for two hours. Without even trying. I know she's introverted, but we are close and I have never been known as shy, so we have lots to talk about. Sometimes we even mention the weather. Happy birthday month, Gigi! :-)DJanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07152183871573797791noreply@blogger.com
