Please never, never call me at 8am on a weekend. The only exceptions to this rule are if someone's dead, dying, or the zombie apocalypse is here.

I have a tremendous headache, and have not had a chance to make coffee. I had horrible nightmares about being stuck on a plane diverted to Kurdistan, where there were mutants. Ugh.

I imagine that you don't really even need a call in the event of a zombie apocalypse, since you'd find out soon enough anyway.

For years and years and years, I answered my phone at all hours, mostly because people really were old and sick and dying and it might be important. Now, that had better be a good reason to call between the hours of 10 PM and 10 AM. Twelve hours ought to be enough time for anyone to get me, personal or professional.

I know how you feel. Not long after we moved, MIL called us at like 7:30 on a weekend morning, I think to ask if she had the right address (something that could have waited until later). Luckily, we had just woken up anyway, but still....

I'm totally with you. A call before 9-10 AM on a weekend or 7-8 AM on a weekday sends me into panic mode (because of the Year When Everybody Died) If you call me that early and it's not an emergency... you get the riot act read to you.

I take it that you are insufficiently goth in your outlook to accept "from the moment we are born we are dying" as legitimate reason to call at 8am? :-)

I received two phone calls from a british phone number this morning right when I started to wake up. I answered the second one and naturally it was a wrong number.
