I've had a thought. Those who have been my friends for a long time have no trouble with the fact that I am terrible at phones. I am terrible at answering them, returning them, listening to messages. And the reason is that I'VE ALWAYS BEEN THIS WAY. I used to answer the phone as a teen with: "is this important?" When it really comes down to it, I don't chat.

I think the phone actually gives me a little anxiety. So now you know. Really, really the best way to get in touch with me is by text. Text has been my salvation.
