Awkward^n

Those who have had the unfortunate experience of having a phone conversation with me know how poor my conversing-via-telephone skills are.

You may not know — but can probably guess — that my dealing-with-cosmetologists skills are similarly amazing.

I'm sure you can imagine what happens when I try to make a hair appointment over the phone.

It is that much worse when, by necessity, the conversation begins: "So, do you braid white girls' hair?"
