And another 30 to stop crying.

So many open tabs, I know your pain.

Oh, I think I miscommunicated. I like receiving calls. If someone wants to ask me a question and talk to me, they can physically talk to me, instead of texting me and demanding the same level of attention from a text as they would expect from a real time conversation.

If they call and I don't answer they know I'm busy and to try again later. If I call and do answer, it's easy to say "hey, I gotta make this quick" or "I'm not doing anything, let's have a chat" which is harder to do via text. It makes it easier to lay out the expectation for the interaction. If someone is texting me thinking we're going to be having a long text based chat like we're both sitting down in a live chat forum for the evening, but I'm busy and only occasionally looking at my phone because I don't treat text like it's AOL/MSN/IM, we're going to have a bad time. But if they call me, then it's just easier.
