Did Someone Call?

I was in Cabo for a week and realized something amazing. Life was great before there were cell phones. Sure, I can reach you anywhere you go now because you have one, but why should it matter. When I was in Cabo, I was unreachable while I was at the beach or at dinner, or at a bar. Here, you can reach me while I am in the restroom if I have my phone with me. We use our cell phones to make up for our lack of organization, or to try to prove to someone that the reason that we are calling them is far more important than what they are doing at that moment. You are in a meeting. Your cell phone vibrates. You look down. It's your best friend. He knew you had this meeting for the next 3 hours. He calls anyhow. It appears as though he can't figure out what type of beer you should be drinking tonight. He calls to ask. Are we that important? Is the telephone call really more important than what you are doing. Probably not.
