I'm savvy and hip and cool because I talk on my cell phone while driving.
I like to make people think I'm important and validated because someone wants to talk to me so badly, that they can't even wait til I stop and park.

I know it makes me a really shitty driver, because I have two stories going on at once. The driving story (which you'd think would be pretty important), and the story being told by the person on my cell phone.

But it's cool. I can multi-task and it will be ok.

If it weren't for my cell in my hands, while I'm cruising around, I don't think I'd be worth a flying fuck to this world.

Sometimes, I just hold it up to my ear, with no one on the line, just to make everyone think I'm a really cool mother fucker.

10. Well it was meant as a joke for all the people I see who actually do this.
For myself, I'm actually worried that too much exposure could possibly be bad, so I try to limit my phone time. I was projecting onto the folks I see out there who acutally do this.

14. I don't do well with trying to call and drive. I CAN, but I hate to.
If the kid's with me, he'll make the call. Otherwise, I wait until I'm not rolling.
