I have to admit that I hate talking to people. Not because I hate people, no no no no no. I love people. I think humanity is precious and beautiful and wonderful, even if it consists mostly of the unwashed masses. No, I hate talking to people because I am incredibly introverted.

I also had to call a bunch of random people today, except in French. It was exhausting. Then I had to go and meet one of these people, and continue to converse in French. Gah! Too much human contact! Save me, Interweb!
