Im a person with fabluous communication skills that I seldom use… I can get pretty chatty and talk on almost any subject or atleast listen to any subject (listening is an imp part of communication.)
But alas the boredom bugs bites me more often than i’d like. When meeting some 1 for the first time Im fully into the conversation unless the other person boring-ness is astronomically high. However I rarely am able to follow up so dilligently once the relationship is established. I hate doing the regular, ‘hey how are you’s. The only time I enjoy a conversation after that is if the topic is interesting. Hence the only friends Ive made and been able to keep are wierd wierd people who can always keep my brain buzzing.
I wrote this post today because after a long long time I chatted with an old friend. The conversation started with a controversial opening sentence – maybe that’s why there was a conversation in the first place. I was really excited about the next thing she would say, and the reply I would make. Ofcourse simultaneously I was browsing for other things that make me tick. So finally after a long wound conversation we came to a conclusion and then she asked me – So, how are you!
Imagine my reluctance at replying to that. My interest level when from 10 to poof. I went back to whatever else I was doing and still havent replied. When it hit me how odd my behaviour was, my first reaction was to blog it- and Im doing that. Its like talking to myself, I like it.
The reply to my friend is still pending. I still dont feel like replying. What the heck, she knows how I am. That’s why we’re friends,hence, no need to reply!!
cheers!!
