I don’t think I’ve worn a watch in more than five years. If I’m at work, I have access to no less than four digital clocks at any given time: the little numbers in the bottom righthand of my screen; the clock on my work phone; my cell phone face; and a digital clock on the wall to my right.

My mom marvels at the fact that I walk around totally watch-less, but who really needs a watch when they have their cell phones? It’s really like a tic for me — I check my cell phone constantly. And do I actually call people? Rarely, other than the perfunctory “I’m on my way home” dials. I’m all about the lightning-fast texting! Plus I have a moderate case of phone phobia (or “telephobia,” apparently), crazy as that may be!
