Speaking on the telephone used to bring such pleasure to my life.. the connection of genuine friends..of family.. sharing lives.. moments and thoughts… Gosh…. I was constantly on the phone… but now it brings mostly great sorrow.. people who constantly and consistently lie. or use the phone to manipulate…. or worse yet to con me… and i dread calling anyone especially those phone numbers that are supposed to be associated with the people i love..and people who should know me.. and who I should know… really really well… like family and genuine friends… but nothing has been the same… or is right on the phone….. almost ever…
like yesterday..I called my mothers home phone number … when speaking with whom i though was her.. she got a call… and thanks to call waiting.. she put me on hold… sounds normal enough right… well.. her call waiting had music… her call waiting has never had music… ever… when she got back on the phone… I asked if she had my sister put music on her call waiting…. as that is what i heard … nope… just another mystery…
So who the hell was I really speaking with???????
