Watch out for the fountain...



Saw this video today. It definitely gave me laugh, sad to say at the expense of the poor lady, but lets be honest, how many of us could that have happened to? I know that I can be caught regularly suddenly freezing up in the middle of a conversation with someone because my phone goes off. Or all of a sudden you stop walking and just start staring down at your phone. How many of you have had near encounters with something almost just like this? No? Well maybe you did but you just never noticed because you were looking at your phone.

I've recently decided that it really bothers me when people look to their phone to answer a text or what have you in the middle of a conversation (ok maybe I didn't just decide this but I have recently been reminded of it). Because of this video and my recent reminders it has made me that much more adamant that I will not be one of those people to let my cell phone dictate conversations with others or my walking patterns. So, know that you have the complete freedom to call me out on this should I slip back into old habits when you are around. Really, I'll appreciate it more than you know.

All I'm saying is that it really helps in a conversation if you're actually listening to the person and it really helps when walking if you look where you're going...don't be the next one to fall in a fountain.
