Do you call people just to chat...

We have unlimited long distance, all of my hubby's family and my friends are in Louisiana and we are relocated to Ohio because of Hurricane Katrina, so we call and talk to my friends and family often, and it cost us nothing so most of the time they call me and I call them back, sometimes when I am on the phone with 2 of my friends we talk for a hour or more. But most of my phone calls around here are just to make a appointment or to see what happening at my son or daughter's house.

Nope, there has to be a reason for me to call some one. To schedule plans, confirm them, accept an offer, ask a favor, share information, whatever. I've tried to pick up the phone to just say "hey" but then I have nothing to talk about and there's awkward silence, and its just weird. I have people that call me to just talk, and then conversations can be any where from 5 minutes to two hours. But when I call it's usually only a couple of minutes.

i try not to call any one unless it's something important, or something is going on like a birthday or a shower or a big road trip other than that we text each other till our fingers fall off. i know it may sound a little anti social but when im on the go i text and walk that way no one is listening to my conversation.

in my highschool days a few of my friends would do this. sometimes i would call them and sometimes they would call me and we would go on for hours. lol... its actually fun just catching up on other topics, even though weve seen each other that morning. hahaha... its like were attached to the hip. silly i know but its actually fun. but these days, everyone is so busy and everyone is going in all different directions that we dont call each other anymore. and besides, now there is also the internet and texting. i hardly use the phone these days. if i would call for no reason at all i would make sure that the person wouldnt be too busy and is available to talk. but now, in using the phone i would use it with purpose.

yes i do...lol[b][/b]
