Says someone who doesn't text.
I laughed out loud at that. I do that with the person I'm dating. I send probably twenty+ to my eldest daughter throughout the day regarding school and shooting her some hot memes.
With a couple of friends we share all kinds of stuff throughout the day that easily reaches a hundred.
And I still put in a 12 hour workday plus time for other stuff. Not every minute of the day has something happening, which makes for a good moment to touch base with those you love.
But the incredulity from the Republican rep over the number of texts made me laugh.
Hell, one girl I dated a few years ago we sent probably several hundred texts a day. And none of those would have been read aloud in congress!

And it is so much faster than phone calls.

(6,399 posts)it's not an interruption. It's simply "another window" that's open where you interact with people.
