I learned tonight that I am excellent at talking on the phone. . . even if there's nobody on the other line. I can still carry on a brilliant conversation that keeps that one weird guy walking behind me at bay. I suppose I'm just a superb conversationalist ;)
Maybe I should have been more kind and let the awkward envelop me, but I wasn't in the mood for it tonight. So I talked. And told the "person on the other line" all sorts of good stories, and she told me a few herself. And I made it through my walk to rehearsal safely entertained.
I figure by telling you this that you'll either laugh and think I'm ridiculous (which I readily admit to) or stare at the screen in shock thinking I am the most horrid person on the planet. But I have no control over what you think or feel. This is who I was tonight. Maybe that person will be different, and more kind, next week. Who knows?
