I can't leave a decent message for the life of me. What da fuck.
Horry Kow!

    me either..there's too much pressure.
    These cuts are leaving creases. Trace the scars to fit the pieces, to tell the story, you don't need to say a word.

    I usually just tell them to call me back if I get their voice mail.

    Just think about what you're going to say and....talk

    lol...
    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.

    Okay YES me too! :p

    But that wasn't an option cutback! :p

    If it is at work, definitely email. If I HAVE to call, I silently say wishes that VM will pick up so I don't have to deal with the people.

    If it isn't work related, I'd rather text someone.

    Maybe the OP has a problem with being "breezy." (hehe there was an episode of Friends where they talked about this). :D

    I do, but still. I don't like it. I don't like leaving messages and I don't like checking messages. Bullshit.

    I have a fear that I always end up sounding like a douche when I leave an answer phone message, so I try to avoid doing it.

    You could end your messages with "muthafucka!"

    And listening to others' is bad too. I find myself wondering, what are these upcoming messages that I probably don't want to hear and deal with.

    I love when people leave a long message and they forget to say their #.

    I dont mind leaving a voicemail, but i hate it when i recieve one. When i have the symbol on my phone and have to retrieve it, im always apprehensive about what the message is could be lol
    People say im paranoid. Well, they dont say it, but i know that's what they are thinking.

    I thought I was teh only one. i hate leaving messages, and 90% of the time, i just hope they see me on Caller ID, and that's reason enough to call back

    My brain races too fast, looking for the next sentence when leaving a work message. I find I repeat myself as well. I always hang up and Im like SHIT, i forgot a major piece of info....

    When I leave a message for a friend, its always something stupid so there is no pressure.

    I prefer phone calls when I can make them than text messaging or email.
    All that's sacred, comes from youth....dedications, naive and true.
