I noticed today that I only have 13 Bloglines subscribers! That means somebody finally got sick of my drivel ... that makes me such a sad panda.

In an effort to make things more efficient in our world, I hereby propose that it become standard practice to leave your phone number at the beginning of a voicemail message. "Hi, my name is Roy Kim, and my number is 555-555-5555." Then leave your message. I usually repeat my number at the end as well. This prevents having to listen to the whole message twice just to get the callback number.

On a related note, I finally disconnected my voicemail. I spent about twenty minutes trying to figure out how to disable it through the phone - turns out I have to call customer support to do it. (As a side note, regardless of where you stand on the net neutrality bill, the one thing I can say with certainty is the telecom community is corrupt; there is no way my cell phone service costs $40/month. No-farking-way. It's a ripoff, and if it wasn't such a necessity in today's world, I would discontinue it). I've never been happier since disconnecting my voicemail - now I don't feel as pressured to return calls! I figure if it's important, they'll call me back (I do return calls though if they are missed from people I know) or they'll email me.

I am such an antisocial bastard!
