Spending time socializing, talking with family or friends on the phone? Business calls do not count.

I see my friends so often there's not really a reason to call, cause I've told them everything already! And otherwise I call them to meet up and THEN tell everything!

The only time i have really long hour calls, is at night when i cant hang around with my bestest mate in the whole wide world! SO i end up being on the phone for hours instead!

I use the phone the most to check on my kids when they are at home. Having teenagers don't allow me to use the phone much LOL. Now, when I talk to my family in Puerto Rico, I can talk for an hour at a time. :D

I don't spend a whole lot of time watching tv.. mostly the news and some of the reality shows. I like the Home and Garden shows too. Wish there was a Betty Boop network that showed all her cartoons.

I've never been any good on the phone. My teenage daughter I've seen on the phone 9 hours one day. If I make it to 15 minutes it's almost a record. I hate being on the phone almost as much as I hate driving !!!

:o The only time I am really on the phone for A real long period of time is when my husband calls from over seas and sometimes our conversations are almost 3 hours longit just depends on how his day is over there. I'm usually on the phone with my girfriend for about an hour but not everyday. I like talking on the phone to A certain extent but after A while I have to hang up.:rolleyes:

Jenny you have an excellent excuse for being on the phone for so long because you don't see or talk to your husband everyday!! So it's good that he's able to communicate with you.

I read last year that the problem is NY stopped enforcing the no cell phone use while driving. Such a law goes into effect in CA in July 8th. But the penalty is so low that I think it is a joke. Also it was passed a year ago. Two years before taking effect..... Well, that's California.

Since the question was "per day", I just chose, "Less then 15 minutes".
Generally I call/get a call from my parents and it's just a brief, "I'm finished work now, will be at your house in a few minutes" - we never really call to chat as we see each other nearly every day anyway.
I'm more of a texter - I text quite often, particularly with one friend and when we do actually call each other, it's always for 20+ minutes :) We've also been known once to chat for 6 hours!!! :D
