Yes you will. Just a matter of time.

You're only thinking of the sender. The sendee is thankful for the text because they may be in a position that doesn't allow their having a conversation, but may still need the information.

That's the best feature of text messaging and e-mail. It relays info without having to interrupt whatever it is that a person is doing at the time.

Nope, I will do without first. I only use my cell for calls and not many of them, I still have a land line and answering machine. The only "connected" I need is with the computer, that is what I use for email and the web.

'Sides, the cell is ignored when I am busy or don't want to be bothered. It is mainly for emergency and the occasional need to talk with someone while away from home or my daughter telling me I need to pick up the grandsons as she is tied up at work. Never was much of a talker just to talk and would rather F-T-F with folks local.

Dunno much about the Apple watch, but the Pebble watch (the thing Apple is ripping off and trying to outsell) can have bigger time digits than any other watch I've ever seen.

Or, if you don't like digits, you can have text. For example, my Pebble right now says:

nine
thirty
one


in letters about that size. Is that easy to read?

I use voice to text all the time. It takes only 10 seconds to text "NO" to someone, while it would take 30 minutes to explain "no" in a phone conversation.

Texting is for my sanity, most of the time.
