"I have an old telephone nook, but it looks like a small child's chair with a 3-inch shelf at the bottom where the phone book used to go. I remember being about 3 or 4, and my cousin and I could each sit side by side on that chair — it was just the right size for us. Now I explain to my young son what those rotary phones were like, and how phone numbers used to only be four digits long. He looks at me like I'm a dinosaur."
