My phone books ARE the one thing I can actually find when I need them. They stay in one drawer, and I use them so little that they don't get tossed all over the house. So when I need a pizza number or whatever, I can actually find the phone book.

But things are different now, for sure. I don't have any of my friends' phone numbers memorized. I still remember some of my friends' numbers from high school though. Because we had to dial the phone. Sometimes, you had to try to dial really quietly because "what could you possibly have to talk about you just got off the bus with them?" and when the dial went back it seemed way too loud for how sneaky I was trying to be.
