Awright, WHY is it

[cjsmith]

Why is it that the people I'd love to hear from, the people who couldn't possibly tell me too much about what's going on in their lives, the people I really enjoy talking to, the people I wish I could spend more time with, the people I would really like to have open up and share things with me... are NEVER EVER the same ones who phone me up out of the blue and assume I have an hour to listen to them blather?

I guess this post could have been a lot shorter. To wit: "Caller ID is your friend."

No kidding!! Of course, you could call back when you're not busy, but Murphy's Law says they'll be out then.

Wireless headsets might help with that one. (Hah - there's a technology answer to everything!) Unless any of your crises include talking.

Places don't deliver during Ramadan? Can you still go get take-out?

No, most restaurants are closed, period. Except the sweet shops. :) But I can't very well feed my kids nothin' but cake for EVERY dinner....

Oh wow. Are the sweet shops open during the day, or only in the evening? How about stuff like groceries?
