WAW has texted/emailed/VM'd demanding that I call her about "something," but in no case has there been any indication, no matter how oblique, of what Thing Some Thing might be.
This strikes me as a very dubious proposition -- as General Patton said, haste and speed are not synonyms. I have thus far refrained from my normal reaction impulse but am now at a loss. All else equal, I would much prefer writing to speaking -- our convos historically (i.e., for 22 years) have an almost magical way of going right off on tangents. The mere "tone" of the missives she has dispatched puts me in Defense Mode.
Thoughts?
Hiya SP,
I've always hated vague/cryptic "call me" e-mails/VMs/TMs. In fact, I got one at work this morning. I generally ignore them, and the other party usually then initiates a second attempt with a little more info about why they're trying to reach me. Maybe it's just my own quirk, but I hate the feeling of being "ambushed."
Maybe a TM with a "Today's been nuts, but I wanted to let you know that I've gotten all of your messages. Is everything okay? What is it you need to discuss?"
