Breaking Resolutions

It's no secret I hate the phone. That's why I decided to make calling people my new year's resolution.

I didn't call anyone to wish them a happy new year on the first. I didn't even answer calls when people called me.

On the 2nd, after a looooong first day back in the hospital I just wanted to go home and sleep. I was determined though. I had to call someone. So I flipped open my cell and realized that I have a lot of phone numbers in my phone.

Most of the people I haven't talked to in years. I'm not even sure I'd call them friends anymore. I picked one and gave her a call. She didn't pick up, and her voicemail was just a voice that repeated the number I just called. I couldn't tell if it was her or not, but left a message anyways.

Seriously? What the hell is the point of repeating the phone number I just called as your message? Why wouldn't you say your name? Seriously?

The second person I called didn't pick up either, so I left her a message as well. Not wanting to feel like I didn't accomplish anything with this resolution, I gave my best friend a call. She didn't pick up either, but I justified that one by assuming she was taking care of her newborn baby.

I don't feel defeated, but no one has called me back. It just makes me want to not call anyone. How crappy would that be to break my resolution after only a few days, though?

I think I'll do what majority of the people at my gym will do. I'll give it a month and then maybe quit.
