we are all 4-year-olds with no memory of anyone's phone number or address.

and remember when you knew phone numbers? in fact, i can still remember and recite phone numbers of friends i had in elementary school. but i couldn't tell you the numbers to the people i call or text every day.

at least i can pretend that linked in is "professional" and may benefit me in the job hunt some day. and i'm still refusing FB.
