no telefano!

I have a confession to make. I really dislike talking on the phone. It seems heartless and I know it appears selfish, but I hate doing it! When Mike and I were doing the long distance thing, we talked on the phone every night. The whole time we would be on the phone, I would be doing homework, watching tv, or clicking around on the internet. I was still listening...most of the time... but I cannot just sit there and not do something else! What am I supposed to do, sit on the phone and stare at a blank wall?

There are a few exceptions to this of course:

1. My dear friend Jerri - because she lives in Michigan and it is the only Jerri time I get.
2. My mom - because it is usually only when I need need NEED to talk to her about something
3. (my most embarressing) when I am driving

I realize that point number three makes me somewhat of a hypocrit because lets be honest. It sucks being on the other end when someone is driving and calls YOU to talk. Usually you are busy doing something and they are like, "so...what's new?" I catch myself calling #1, #2, and of course, the hubby. He does not like it, and I cannot blame him. The response I usually get is, "if you are just talking while you are driving, can I hang up and talk when you get home?"

But I will make an exception every once and a while. And that is it... don't abuse my kindness! I will email, facebook, text...whatever you want! I just hate talking on the phone. Oh, and lets not forget that I will (of course!) meet face to face which is the best and should be most common solution.

Sorry if this offends anyone that has recently called me... I don't hate you, just the phones in between us.
The end.
