Phone Calls

Do you ever feel like phone calls have become irrelevant?

It seems like people would rather text than talk with you. I miss the sound of voices saying hello and asking, "How are you?"

Sometimes when you do manage to get someone on the phone their conversations seem so vapid and rushed, as if they're using their texting personas put to voice.

Perhaps it is my own fault, I always get straight to the point when I need something. This year I'm making it a point to get back to the niceties. 

Skeptical

I shall remain politely bemused, as I realize these people rarely tell the truth.
