I almost never “just” talk on the phone- at the very least I’m pacing but usually doing one of the things you mentioned, TexasDeb. That being said, when I talk to my sister on the phone every few weeks, I don’t make her wait while I watch a video or for anything.

And by the by, I’ve kinda been hoping that T would come post a comment in his defense.

Oh… brothers. Can’t get them to talk but then you can’t get them to leave you alone when you need to get something done. I’ve noticed my grown kids are like that though – hardly ever “just” talk on the phone. They are always talking while driving to work, checking email, watching TV, walking to class. I’m getting past the point I take that personally. It seems hardly anybody under a certain age simply does one thing at a time any more. Harumpf! (wow do I feel old now…..)

I agree – don’t let him get away with that – for his OWN good as well as yours and your relationship!

What I love best about Mr. Big is that he is completely honest, truly himself. (And like E says, after that feel-good minute of understanding…then punch him out bigtime.)

Sometimes the best use of family is for writing. They make great material. Write on, sister. Having that particular brother, you’ve got enough material for several books.

Ha! Hilarious stuff.

You’re awesome, T-money.
