How soon after waking up do you look at your phone?
Within an hour, if I remember.

Would you rather text or call someone?
Either way, but lean toward call ��� my fingers always hit the wrong keys while I text. Steve Jobs plagues me.

Location of last selfie?
Deer Valley, a Utah ski resort.

The last baseball-related photo you���ve taken?
Coors Field, September game.

Last person you called?
My spouse, Rocio.

First thing you���d do if you lost your phone for a day:
Probably rejoice, then go to the computer.

Does anyone else have your passcode?
Everyone has my passcode, including people who I���ve worked with, just like everyone knows where the key to our house is.

App you wish you had the inner strength to delete?
MarketWatch ��� why do I care about the Dow Jones average? It���s gone wild for years anyway and doesn���t seem to indicate how the real economy is going.

Duration of longest call last week?
Two hours, with my mom.
