Escapist.

I am a big, big escapist. A confession follows. Once I bought a comics book from a rental library when I was kid. (~12 yrs). Daily rental was some 50 Ps or so. I someho missed returning that within 2 days. And I had only 1 rupee for my discretionary spending. I don't remember why I didn't ask my parents, since they were very liberal with me in all respects.
And instead of returning the book on 3 rd day or so, I simply kept delaying the issue. Finally the shop keeper had come to my home, looking for his book and the kid who took it. All along I knew that, it's going to happen. Then why didn't I act? I was just wishing away the problem. :( That good guy had asked for 3rs or so instead of 7 or 8 rs I owe if it had been calculated normally.

Why did I remember that now? I hate my mobile phone. And I hate more all those guys whe get hold of my number.I don't want to talk to any relative stranger. Please, please call me only when your job cannot be done by somebody else.
There is this guy, a supplier who insists on meeting me, talking to me for atleast 30 mts,..It's actually like stalking. He wants to know my programme for next 2 months. He wants to know if he can meet me in delhi, ....
God bless the guy who invented caller ID. The moment I see such stalkers' name appearing on my mobile/landline, I am into escapist mode. I simply let my mobile divert call to somebody else and landline to just ring, ring and ring. I know that, at times, the other party knows that, I am avoiding him. Even then, some persist. I hate all such people.
I consider myself to be a sensitive , nice person. Surprise, Surprise.:) And I end up saying "yes" when I want to say "no". And some people take advantage of that. That's the reason I avoid talking. Talking to people outsie my circle.
It's not that whole world conspired to take advantage of me. It's just that, I am not very right in all imy interactions with people around me. And hence I avoid, try to escape.
The whole thing sounds like nonsense. I know.
