Whip
My neighbor Anita had called yesterday. She had an eye appointment in Collegetown on Tuesday and her driver wasn't feeling well at the moment. Could I be her 'Plan B' ride for tomorrow? Not a problem. This morning got a text that her driver wasn't feeling better and was I still OK w/ driving. I texted back I'd pick her up around noon. She responded w/ an emoji. OH NO. People have texted me emoji's at the end of messages and I just ignore them since I haven't the foggiest what emojis add. This time the whole message was just an emoji. It was a round yellow circle w/ lines for eye's and mouth so this one was meant to be a facial expression - probably convey a feeling. Nuts! I'm awful at feelings. The mouth was turned up in a smile. Must mean something good. Eyes were closed. She was tired and going back to bed? Maybe I shouldn't text back for awhile. The eyebrows on the eyes looked normal - no clues there. Either edge where cheeks would be located were reddish - embarrassed? Good-Sleepy-Embarrassed. No idea. Decided to leave the meaning at my first impression - 'good'. I haven't been texting long and still use full words instead of acronyms. Eventually I'll get caught up w/ the current texting trends. Will probably use the wrong emoji a few times so just a heads up to not be confused if you receive a strange one from me. WIP
