It was a textual relationship (1)

After she left we kept in touch mainly by text messaging, e-mail, and one phone call. But mainly text messaging. She gave me such a laugh, and I hope her too. One Sunday we texted each other odd Country and Western Song titles, e.g. "I've put my beer in the boot of my car and I'm driving myself to drink", "I missed you... but my aim is getting better", etc, etc. She was into Alt-Country so she had a better range of songs to draw on.

I enjoyed getting text messages while at work too. I stick music on my PC. One day I texted her that I was listening to Perry Farrell cover the Doors track "Children of the Night" when I got a text from her. She was into the Doors (and would quite happily have been a groupie for the cover band I think). She texted me back saying that she was humming a Janes Addiction track when she was typing the text. Shit like that happens around me the whole time. When I meet someone else that's on the same wavelength I really dig it.

A lassie at work heard my mobile phone go. She said that I probably liked a "textual relationship" because I didn't have to deal with people in "real" life. Looking back, maybe she was right.
