"Everyone was so insightful about texting my hometown crush! Thank you! I can really see both sides. It does depend on what I want out of it. It&amp;#39;s fine for me to text him out of the blue, but if I do it with any expectations whatsoever, that&amp;#39;s just stupid. Why? He wasn&amp;#39;t thinking about me (or having any expectations); he was just minding his own business.\nBut like Ryan and Pixydust said, it might make for a good story (or blog post).\nSince the majority has spoken: Around 7:30 last night, I texted that I was home in SD, but like spazzette said, I didn&amp;#39;t suggest anything. He came back wanting to know what brought me to SD, what my plans were for the week, and said we should grab a drink. I suggested Sunday or Monday and he said we&amp;#39;d talk later in the week. I&amp;#39;ll let you know if we actually do talk or get together!\nAt dinner last night, my mom was saying she missed the days when boys had to call the house phone and ask for me. She would get to hear the sound of their voice and judge their phone manners. Nowadays, she never has a clue about the guys in my life because they just call my cell phone (or text or email). My mom was the middleman, and technology just cut her out.\nIf my mom had her way, my crush would call the house phone and make plans then and there to pick me up on a specific date and time. Then he would have to follow through, because if he didn&amp;#39;t, he&amp;#39;d be flat-out standing me up.\nPinterestFacebookShould we go back to the hamburger phone? This one, btw, is from Urban Outfitters.\nDoesn&amp;#39;t it seem sometimes that easy technology and all the other distractions and conveniences of modern life--easy money, easy women (no judgments, I&amp;#39;m just saying it&amp;#39;s not exactly the 1850s)--have only made the end goal of getting together that much harder??\nP.S. GatrGirl, congrats on the L.A. job! Now you&amp;#39;ll have to become a USC fan! ;)"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
