FYI: I ****LOATHE**** the telephone. So I procrastinate heavily on any and all calls I have to make. ::hugs fandom people:: sorry about that.

Part of it is that I think I have horrible phone voice, another is that I think I have a horrible voice, in general, and the sheer physical fact of a phone makes me all the more aware that I am *speaking*. Part of how I got over my fear of communicating badly is to be totally oblivious to the fact that I am possibly making a fool of myself; and thus part of what I'm making myself oblivious to is the fact that my voice is making sounds.

Dunno if I'm the only one like this.

Thoughts?

Oh no, you're not alone. The only people I talk on the phone to are my family, but that's not exactly hard. I hate answering it, hate making calls (I sympathize with putting off calls for-forever because I do the exact same thing. And then I'll finally break down and do it and then go, see, wasn't that easy? No, no it fucking wasn't.)

I really don't know what the deal is, probably part shyness and probably part that I stutter.
