Texting

First time tonight, probably the last.

My wife and I were driving to Little Rock to pick up our newest temporary exchange student, who was at a basketball game. Priscilla said she had received a text from Katrina, saying that a friend and the other girl’s mother were going out to dinner. Did we want to come along? Priscilla had texted we would pick up Katrina and we all would go out together. All this happened before we left the house, so I was not aware of any of it. Katrina texted back, asking where we would go? My wife was driving, so she asked me to answer with Loca Luna. I entered “Loca” and auto correct changed that to “Love.” I can’t send that to a 16-year-old girl, nor to any female-type person other than my wife, so I back spaced, taking out the “ve” and entering “a.” Auto correct changed that, so what I wanted as “Loca” became “Locan.” In trying to back space, I pressed “Enter” two times. Back spacing again, I got to the right line, and then somehow pressed “Send.” That sent the text “Locan.” That’s when I gave up. My fingers are too wide and the texting area too small. Alexander Graham Bell did not text. I see no reason to do so, either.
