Texting

Texting sucks, in all honesty. I hate the idea of people being able to get a hold of me no matter what -- I mean, really, can I get some privacy?
     But sometimes I can't help it. Like when I'm just too lazy to go upstairs and ask my mom something, so of course, out comes the phone where I get to texting away.
     So, you know how there are always those people who are a little TOO expressive in their texts, and those that aren't expressive at all? I don't know which is more annoying, although I'm probably being a hypocrite, cause I do both. There are just some people who do one or the other all the time.
     Here are some example:
     Me: Hey, wutcha doin?
     Them: Nothing :)
     Me: Wanna do something?
     Them: Yes! XD
     I mean, yeah, texting with expression is great, but a smiley face every time is a little much. Then we have the non-expressive texters...
     Them: Hey how are you
     Me: Good, good. You?
     Them: good what are you doing next week
     ... see what I mean? If people don't use punctuation, it sort of bothers me -__- is that weird? Probably, but hey.
    And then, of course, we have the nosy texters.
    My grandmother is one of those texters. She has to know WHAT you're doing and WHERE you are and WHY you're doing it, at all times.Don't get me wrong, I love her and all, but seriously. Here's an example:
     Grandma: What are you doing? :)
     You: Hanging out with my friend.
     Grandma: Who? :)
     You: (insert friend's name here)
     Grandma: Where
     You: Their house
     Grandma: When are you coming home?
     You: IDK
     Grandma: What are you doing with them? :)
     And she always adds the smiley face, like that's really going to disguise the fact that she's trying to find out everything you're doing. We have sort of a nosy family. My great grandma does the same, only she actually calls you to find out what you're doing. Ha! Family.
     Of course, there are always those that are sort of in between, and that's usually the one I can stand. Take my cousin for example. This was our conversation today:
     Me: Duuuude can you hang hang?
     Him: Nope sorry
     Me: Lame
     Him: Yeah
     Now I'm thinking that at least he took the time to type 'yeah' instead of 'ya', so I say: You're not a very dynamic texter, are you?
     My next thoughts are that he's going to send something back along the lines of 'nope' or something simple like that, but he surprised me by texting this:
     IS THIS BETTER!!!!
     That got me laughing big time. He's so funny, I forget sometimes. I send back: Yep :) MUCH BETTER!!!
     And he sends back a text full of the great "hahahah's" and all that. I love the conversations I have with my cousin. He's such a stud.
