If something personal does come up I'll say it in a whisper. <br />That said, I'm a little righteous about being able to talk on my cell phone where I am... (but not in line at checkout, not in an office, and not in a restaurant) because while you may have the luxury of seeing your best friend (husband) when you get home... my best friends and my family are scattered around the country - and the opportunity to talk to them is as rare as getting to speak to your doctor about test results! A couple ladies hrrumphffed and complained when they could hear me talking on my cell while shopping and I thought... "Gee, you're shopping with YOUR friend and having a conversation. Why can't I shop with MY friend?"<br /><br />Another time, I made a Starbucks date with my friend in San Fran (I'm in Denver) and we both got our coffees.... and I smiled and nodded to the man at the next table who looked up when he heard me talking... "I'm having a coffee date with my best friend." He smiled and left me to it.TRShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09801686710086039781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8820369028684428764.post-77058766591314951942012-02-29T14:47:44.789-05:002012-02-29T14:47:44.789-05:00Thanks!

I will admit that I have been known to talk on the cell phone while in a store but I try to talk quietly and I NEVER talk on the thing when I am checking out.Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11326484192966920116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8820369028684428764.post-88085517830326141562012-02-28T21:38:06.210-05:002012-02-28T21:38:06.210-05:00Totally agree but I've also been the guilty pa...Totally agree but I've also been the guilty party. Normally it's a volunteer and they expect you to answer (or expect me at least). I have had some uncomfortable discussions in Target regarding my 17 yr old's kidney stone and bloody urine but you've got to talk when the doctor call or it will be another 24 hours. I try to be discreet.<br /><br />Love your blog!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8820369028684428764.post-63177213374915676652012-02-27T17:11:03.806-05:002012-02-27T17:11:03.806-05:00I was actually in a (long) line at Walmart once an...I was actually in a (long) line at Walmart once and was forced to listen to both sides of a conversation because the woman behind me had her cell phone's speaker on!! I couldn't help but wonder if the person at the other end had any idea we all could hear her. Unbelievable.laurenleephttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08979522316062824485noreply@blogger.com
