My "Idol" watching was interrupted by a phone call last night. At first, it was great hearing from this person, but the call went on and on and on and on and on and on...and I was just saying, "Uh-huh," "yep", "I could have told you that," etc., etc., etc.
I like "being there" for friends....but I hate being taken for a ride. When the call was two hours old, I stopped the one-sided dialogue and said I needed to go because it was near my bedtime and I had some things I needed to do. My caller got huffy, apologized for taking up my valuable time and hung up!
It saddens me, but I pray it's the last I ever hear from this person.
