Slippery Mind

[lillibet]

miss_chance has famously said that, despite having done a lot of physical labor in her lifetime, the heaviest thing she's ever lifted was the telephone receiver.

I had a phone call to make that was difficult for me. Not the call itself--I knew I'd just be leaving a message--but the symbolism of doing it, the ball that it would start rolling. I had it on my to-do list today. I told Jason that I was going to make the call. I made the other two related-but-easier calls and then I paid some bills and started playing a computer game. And then I caught myself--none of your tricks, now, brain!--picked up the phone and made the call.

Call made on the first day I intended to make it, FTW!
