Here are a couple of photos I thought were slightly interesting... I was messing with my camera yesterday and found a few interesting "modes"... sam.. the one at left is just for you! stay tuned for more! (sorry for the formating... blogger and I are not getting along very well today....)In any case.... I wanted to discuss well, several things, but I won't bring them up just yet....
for today's post, i thought i'd go back to my "seinfeld" motif.
my title for this blog entry "initiating contact" sounds a bit awkward, i realize, however, i think it suits this entry perfectly.
anyway, so, my question for the day is:
what is the procedure on the "call back"? or, in this disgustingly technological age, "msg me, sometime, eh?"
i do believe this was actually discussed on seinfeld - but it was in regards to the morning after... as in, so you have a "great" night with someone... then you're obligated to call them back, etc etc..
in my case, i'm speaking a lot more generally... for example, many people say "yeah, i'll give ya a call sometime" - friends! not just some person you go out on an awkward date with... or one of my friends does the "i'll call you right back, ok?"
now, i must admit, i am very much "contact" shy. so i feel weird calling even my best friends - what if they're busy, or don't want to talk or... a million what ifs! however, if i tell you i'm going to call, chances are, unless something stupid happens, that i will.
on the other hand... people that go through the horrible experience of leaving me a message (with my parents or voice mail).... well, good luck on getting a call back from me... i'll do everything in my power to avoid it. excuses, staring at the phone.... perhaps even dialing and then hanging up.. ahaha (i can even SEE sam saying aww, tah)
in my defence, I KNOW i'm not the only one out there with callerphobia. not to be confused with cholera, although both are potentially deadly. eheh
anyway, let me know your thoughts.

I completely agree with you about the phone. Now that's why the deadly MSN has it's advantages. When you are in Online Mode, it means that you are there and want to receive messages. There is Away if you aren't and DND if you want people to know you are there but you are busy. Now I agree that when you call somebody that it needs to be much more appropriate to be able to just say. Sorry I can't talk now. It seems that when you get a phone call you have to take it. Now I also don't get called all that much and recently was in my own debate about calling people. So here's the deal, I think it will always be difficult sometimes to just call people; you can't get around that. But when you have been asked to call somebody don't be afraid, they are expecting you to call back which means they want to hear from your and your sexy voice.
My Thoughts for now.
P.S. Are the Divorce Papers still at the Lawyers?
several things...
1. sam, the pic at right is for you.. like i said, blogger hates me
2. my dearest caeser... i must admit to you that i am about to run off with brute... he's just taking the bags to the car right now. i've signed the papers... my messenger will be at your door shortly.
3. i know i have a sexy voice. this is why i don't call people back.. i'm not sure if they can handle it or not...
