Stupid shit.
I go through these phases where I absolutely hate talking on the phone. Like for weeks on end, I hate hearing the phone ring and I just don't answer it or when i do, I I do everything I can to get off the phone.
Sometimes I just really hate talking.
Does anyone else ever feel this way?
I feel horrible that I don't want to talk to people and they probably think I'm being a bitch or I'm mad at them but sometimes I just can't stand talking. Emails? IMs? Sure, will do it all the time but sometimes, the phone just makes me want to hurl.
So anyway, if you've called me in the last few days, yes i have either been sleeping really or I just didn't want to talk.
I'm still trying to teach the boys to just let the answering machine get it.

So... call me?
Seriously though, I'm the same way. I talk on the phone all day at work. The last thing I want to do is talk on the phone at home. Which is so ironic, because when I was living in PA, my ear was glued to the fucking thing.

Yeah, I just can't stand it sometimes. I want to actually unplug it right now cuz I'm sick of it ringing but then something bad will happen. I just *know* it.

I get that way too...but with all the kids i just have to answer it, although in the evening i can walk away.
Do you know that it is something I actually had to work at! Not living life feeling like you MUST answer the phone??! Now it is easy..except I am constantly jumping to see if ft. jackson shows up on the caller id...lol

I really am having to work at it. I hate being at the mercy of whoever is on the other end. Grr

I go through intense phases of hating the phone. I call people when I'm into a good juicy chat. But sometimes, damn it, I just don't feel like talking. And anyway, half the time the phone is for the Teen.
I turn the ringer off when I nap and also at night. I figure, if something happens in the middle of the night, god forbid, to a family member, what the hell can I do about it until the morning, anyway? That sounds colder than it is... but seriously, I ask myself, if someone is sick 500 miles away, am I feasibly expected to get over there in a timely fashion?

I hear ya. I have serious phone phobia. I just don't like it. I am a mean bitch too cuz apparently, I am supposed to answer it every single time people call.

Hey we all have those days, and moments. I only have them when my one Sister calls...she always wants me to watch her kids. LOL.

I am just having a problem online that has carried itself offline and I don't want to play that game anymore. I just want peace dammit and I don't know how to get people in line for that. Oh well.

I am like that all the time. Here's to some peace and quiet for you.
While I'm wishing things upon you, I also wish upon you a winning lottery ticket or two. :)

I just somehow crossed this page, and stopped to read it, and it's kinda comforting when you realize other people are out there going through all the same sh*#. Sometimes I'll avoid everyone for days. I don't really know why.....I guess I want to be alone, or maybe I'm lonley....I dunno. Keep your head up beautiful!

Phones can be a real pain in the ass sometimes!

Yup, when I'm beyond exhaustion and so drained from being around people, I dread the phone and people "dropping" by. Actually I really hate people not calling before they drop in!
Hope you are feeling better today! *HUGS*

I am not a phone talker at all. I actually prefer e-mails because I can write them when I have the time and when I feel like it. I rarely answer the phone at home. I always ask my husband to get it.
