This is definitely my "wtf" moment of the morning.

I dare you to call the toll free number and ask them.

"my first crack kit"

I called 'em, but you just get an answering machine.

Purgatory would be a nice, soft blue, I think. And it would taste like a blue raspberry Slurpie.

I just called and got a lady on the phone. It's totally for real!

Incidentally, I called before I saw your dare, rainbaby.

She answered very cheerfully: Sandy Candy! I feigned interest, but asked point-blank if it was for real.

And what did she say? Do tell. I have such terrible phone phobia. I hate talking on the phone.

Oh me too. I absolutely dread talking on the phone for any reason, even to friends. Immediate family is one thing, but anyone else...no. I'm just not good at it. Why do you hate it, rainbaby?

She answered, and I politely said that I'd visited the website and wondered if Sandy Candy was really and truly a genuine product. She said it certainly was, and that it was a great thing for church activities. She chattered about it for a while, specifically mentioned Easter, etc. I said something along the lines of "oh, that's great, what a wacky and fun idea" (I didn't want to be rude or make her feel silly) and thanked her for her time. She asked me if I wanted any more information, or if the product was something I'd be interested; I told her no thanks, but that I'd check out the website in its entirety.

Wow Specklet. That's impressive! I don't like the phone because I'm pretty strongly introverted - I have an aversion to small talk as well - but the phone is even more difficult than in person, because I rely on body language/vibes to relate to people. Without that, it can just be intolerable.

Hmm. I, too, rely on body language a lot, but talking on the phone doesn't bother me at all...

I hate the phone. Too many years of bill collectors calling made it quite unpalatable for me. Plus you never know if I'm naked, trying to cook, or whatnot. Send me an e-mail unless it's urgent.
