Rather than get out of bed and go talk to them? I did that today. I couldnt even make myself call them. I had to text cause dialing and talking was too much trouble. I am reaching new heights of slob behavior.

4. thats like a modern version of how my family used to operate
When I was growing up. We would just yell across the house at each other. Or more accuately everyone in the house would yell at me from across the house. Drove me nuts for awhile.

5. Never. That's appalling.
I've also never Gmail chatted instructions to my assistant in the next office over to bring me files from the closet outside of my office. Or texted someone next to me at a movie. Or texted my daughter to bring me the water bottle I left on the desk outside of my bedroom...while laying in bed. Nope. That's just appalling.

6. I have even texted someone in the back seat when I was up front
so I didnt have to turn my head. I kid, I kid. I only text to my children and they are 800 miles from me.

12. Not 'lazy', but i have either texted or IMed Lyric from across our mobile home
...just to save from the inevitable series of events that begins with me hollering something down the hall, her saying "what'd you say?" and them me hollering again. *L*

13. No way. I always phone or IM.
But I'm really slow with my thumbs, so texting is the least lazy option for me.

23. Guilty, but not due to being lazy
Jusst don't want to interrupt which older kids consider a simple knock on the door to be(as I have learned).

And I've emailed Mr Gray from the same room instead of talking to him because sometimes it's just too big an effort.
