I am a lark. Even though I am up at the crack of dawn, I would not dream of phoning someone before 9 A.M., or after 9:30 p.m., unless I knew the person very well, and knew that they were up and about before or after those times. I also won't call anyone between 6 & 7 p.m., as most people are eating dinner at that time.
I called a neighbor last night. He returned the call.....................at 5:05 this morning. He explained that he turns off his phone at night when he went to bed. (I called him about 8:30)
Even though I was up, the phone ringing at 5:05 A.M. scared the crap out of me. I have a very elderly grandmother, and had a couple of seconds of high anxiety before I realized who was on the phone. A call at that hour, in the past, usually meant TROUBLE.
Do you have times when you think that calling friends and/or relatives is appropriate? What are they? Do you consider that any time is the right time for people to call?
