as I am afraid of the phone and much prefer email and websites, I only use my phone when I have to (calling my parents to pick me up from where ever I am) and I have never in my life texed anyone.
My stepmom and dad don't have home phones, they used to go back and forth between two phones in Lincoln, NE and Ames, IA, and so they decided to just use cell phones so they could allways be reached and found out that it worked much better that way, so now even though they don't go back and forth anymore, they still only have cell phones. Thet's why I have mine, it's a family plan.
