why does it seem so hard to me to call and make appointments? seriously, there should be nothing scary about calling to make a dentist or neurologist appointment. it's not like the receptionists are scary - dentists and doctors might be, but they're not the people i'm gonna talk to. and it's not like i'm scared to go to the appointment, just to make the call.
lemony snickett says there are two kinds of fears - rational and irrational. "...Being afraid of a monster under the bed is perfectly rational, because there may in fact be a monster under your bed at any time, ready to eat you all up, but a fear of realtors is an irrational fear...Besides occasionally wearing an ugly yellow coat, the worst a realtor can do to you is show you a house that you find ugly..."
i wonder what he would say about a fear of receptionists.

i think it's more of a fear of being a grown-up, which i think is a perfectly rational fear.
It certainly seems to be a common problem! I had to call the a bank place about a problem with Aiden's RESP and it took me months to do it- and it wasn't bad at all when I did it! (And I apparently discovered a big problem that no one else had been brave enough to call about!) I'm still working up the courage to call Student Loans! I've been working on that since last tax season!
what's resp?
rodents of exceptional size and purpleness?
