We all know LOL, but what about WIS (weeping in silence)?
When I get a message that says "Sup?" my response will be
three different things for three different people:
For Justin it will be: AIRITW (all is right in the world).
For Jenna it will be: Chipotle?
For my mom, it will be: none of your business.
Don't get me wrong though, she will also get
ILY (I love you).
We are all so available, yet cannot be touched, at least not usually.
Funny how that works, huh?
How do we really know who our friends are?
The ratio of sentences spoken to texts written needs to be
at least 5:1. That's what I think, at least.
So call me at 2 am. That will make you a friend.

Texting is such a funny way by which we communicate on a regular basis; I thought it would be fun to explore it with a somewhat funny poem that's maybe a little bit serious too.
