The Poverty Jet Set: Black and White Decisions

    Every time I dial the phone I get that exact feeling. It takes a LOT of effort to finally press the call button... I think I may have a mild phobia of phones actually.

    Well, to be honest, I don't have that same feeling as much anymore. But, I used to all the time when making a call. Sometimes having to try again because I hung up on the first try or because I waited too long and started getting weird dial tones.

    I look forward to the day that I can get this feeling over something a little more serious like the purchase of tickets to Japan or something. Or at LEAST the because it's a phone call to a girl I like and not just Chris' house.

    Is there a scientific name for 'phone phobia'?

    And yes, you do need to purchase those Japan tickets soon!

    Love it. I've definitely experienced those moments and have thought "oh my god...can I really do this?" And of course, the answer has always been "yes. Just push the damn button."
