I’d rather dance with you
Hello, my name is Zolton and I’m a text addict. That’s right, an instinctive, compulsive plier of the trade, straight from the Michael Douglas school of confessional proclamation. Yup, I don’t care if it’s quick or protracted; if it’s a group message or one just for me. I’ll take that text any damn way you can give it. And if that’s a crime in these repressed, conservative times, then so be it. Just don’t strip me of my pride. Or my mobile phone. [illustration by Nathan Jurevicius]

I\’ve certainly witnessed you walk off a squash court, pouring with sweat and lunge straight for your mobile to check messages.
It bugs me, what is it about text messaging that is so compelling to most of us?\\?

Hahaha. I sleep with my mobile phone at the bottom of the bed! It’s pathetic.

I’ve slept right next to my phone for as long as I’ve had one and have been a self proclaimed texter for some time now.
I’ve only just learnt the skill of keeping that phone bill down!
Its a week for coming out with me… I’ve just confessed my shopping addiction as well.
