I've recieved some disturbing news tonight and i felt that I needed to say something about it. I was going to let it go after I worked out, bu then I realized that this was a big deal.
There is a reason I do not answer my cell phone sometimes. Actually there are several reasons:
1) It's not on me
2) I'm at work
3) I'm trying to sleep cuz I wake up at 5:30
4) I'm in the middle of something important and it's rude to answer in the middle of that
5) I'm just not in the mood to talk
I think those are all the reasons why sometimes I'm not by my cell phone. And don't get me wrong, I love my friends and I love getting phone calls and I just love how I get to hear from my friends all the time. But there are times when I NEED to just not answer it.
I shouldn't be ridiculed when I'm not 100% available. No one should. I need a break sometime though. Even if it is an hour here or an hour there... I mean c'mon. That's a reasonable amount.
There is no part of me that wants to come off as "oh well I just have oh so many friends and I just don't have time for all of them!" That is NOT what I'm saying. But I'm just always meeting people and trying to keep in touch with everyone, and I just get tired. I'm just trying to make everyone happy and nothing sucks more than when I take that me time, and then I get people mad or people that keep calling, or people who leave me threatening messages. These should not be acceptable things.
Again, I love you all, but just understand that if I need some time...give me some! I'll call you back when I can, and leave a message if it's super important, or call again.... and sometimes I just don't have it sewn to my hip. Bare with me. I know I have to be a littl ebit better with answering it but sometimes if I answer this is what I'll say "I'm just not in the mood to talk" and then people will be like "why?" which ensues a conversation. I'm doing my best okay? I love you and I do care what's going on, just gimme a little credit okay?

lol if i haddn't already decided what my final project will be i would probably use this idea of cell phones and what it means to be reachable 24-7. It could actualy be a very good esay.
ReplyDeleteHey babe, I don't think anyone can expect you be constantly able to answer your phone. Perhaps if you were a hermit... who didn't do anything... and lived in the middle of an area with great cell phone service. Maybe then yea but you're not and so I don't think you ever need to apologize for not answering your cell phone. You're a great friend to all those who seek a friendship with you and applaud your ability to make every one feel like they mean something special to you. Love!
