Relatively Speaking Get texting under control

ess than 30 seconds after leaving a voice mail, my phone rang. “That was quick,” I said to a realtor I’d never before met. “I always have my phone with me,” she said, a sense Lof urgency rising in her voice. “I even sleep with my phone,” she boasted. “My husband can’t stand it.” Hmm, can’t imagine why. Who wouldn’t enjoy getting occa- sionally jabbed by an inanimate object while they slept, or having the shrill ring of a cellphone randomly jolt them out of a peaceful sleep?
