Gratitude journal: Exceptionally practical friends who understand that brevity is the soul of wit

Tonight I am grateful for the infinitesimal amount of time I spend on the phone thanks to my friends who also have no desire to use this device on a regular basis. I am blessed with many close friends, but thankfully none of them think that chatting on the phone for any length of time is a good idea.

With three days left in the monthly billing cycle, I have used a total of 41 minutes of talk time on my phone, which amounts to an average of a little more than a minute per day.

Even this seems slightly excessive.

I am more than willing to take phone calls for specific topics that extend beyond the capabilities of a simple text message, but thankfully these occasions are the exception rather than the rule.

This makes me very happy.
