People should know that the telephone is not the best method for reaching me, or any member of the household - the same goes for calling and leaving messages. Please, for the love of Mike, if you need to talk to me, or any of us - email. Yes, we do get the messages, but only about once a week. Seriously. You could post a letter and we'd get it faster. Email, email, email. I know this represents some sort of serious screen addiction, but there it is. Email, email, email.
Thank you.
(Of course, as I'm writing this, the phone rings. I pick it up. "Monkey on a Stick," I say cheerfully. Of course, it's a recording, but it's a recording that is supposed to sound like a human being. Sorry, Mr. Robot-O. You don't go "huh?" when I say "Monkey on a Stick", I don't talk to you. Fact of life.)
Thank you.

Jan. 29th, 2004 06:48 pmIf anyone has taken it upon themselves to wreak vengeance in my name against my ex, I would like you to stop. The possibility that this sort of thing is happening does not make me happy, and it's entirely unnecessary. People know that we didn't break up well and that we didn't have the best relationship in the world, and I think that some of you probably like me and feel inclined to do things for me, but this is not a thing that needs doing. Thanks anyway. I appreciate the spirit in which things are done, but if you're calling him and threatening to cut off his head, that's a) dumb, b) illegal, and c) counterproductive.
I do not wish any harm to come to him, I just don't particularly want to be in contact with him. And if he's calling me to tell me that my friends are harrassing him, that's a hell of a lot more contact than I want.
Thanks.
