Buffy ,'Get It Done'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
But who else has time to talk to you on the phone that much and what do you even have to say??
Yeah, I feel like some people are always on the phone now, and I don't get it! Or, if not "always," at least "regularly" -- like my friend with a long driving commute spends most of it on the phone?? That's the real extrovert/introvert dividing line!
I sympathize with not wanting to waste time on chit-chat in the mornings, but saying "good morning" as you walk past someone's desk is like, the bare minimum acceptable level of human contact for maintaining office relationships.
I was once on the bus and the person ahead of me spent the entire trip - about 40 minutes - on the phone. They'd call one person, talk (saying, basically, they were on the bus on the way home), end the call, then call someone else and have more or less the same conversation. I don't understand it, but I'm old. And kind of a luddite.
My kids don't even call me because they know how much I dislike the phone. They text or message me. I get that it is efficient at times, but just not a fan. I'll talk to you F2F for hours, no problem.
Timelies all!
Had a mammogram today. Took the day off in advance, since the appointment was at 10:20 and I didn't know how long it would take. As it turned out, they got me in and out pretty quickly, so I was done early. Went to the mall to buy a bathrobe(my current winter bathrobe has a hole in it, probably from years of a cat kneading it while in my lap.), window shopped and ate lunch.
I don't mind talking on the phone, but it needs to have a purpose. If the bank calls me about my card getting jacked, I will stay on the line with them as long as it takes to get worked out. If my cousin calls about a health issue, or my niece wants to talk about her baby, I'm there for it. But "Hi. Watcha doing? Not much, you?" ad infinitum is a solid no for me.
Granola and yogurt: Good results~ma, Sheryl! I have my boob squishing appointment on 2/1. There needs to be a better way.
Got a phone call coming up with the company I had a third interview with yesterday. Guess I'll find out how it went.
Smells like an offer to me!
Fingers crossed, Gud!
The last time I had a mammogram, the stickers they used to mark the physical dimensions and alignment of nipple et al had pastel flowers on them, which I found kind of... weird?
