[font color="navy" face="Verdana"]There are only a couple of people I actually enjoy talking on the phone with, and that's not often.

When I worked at a job where I had to be on the phone a lot (before cell phones, texting, and email), the first thing I did when I got home was unplug my phone. It drove my mother crazy - who has always been a phone yakker - but I just couldn't handle hearing it ring one more time.

Gotta love email. Read it when you feel like it, answer when you're in the mood.
