“Texting. I’m a big texter. I call people. Skype is a big thing for me now that I’m living over here [in New York]. Skype is fantastic. That’s only something I’ve discovered this year. I’m so behind on technology, but Facebook and Twitter and all of those things I just think… I just find that I don’t value my opinion that highly so I don’t know why other people would, basically.”
