Wow, that describes me eerily well - thank you smile emoticon I
   mean, I _do_ like to hear about "funny thing that happened
   today" and stuff like that too; I like hearing what's important
   to someone that they want to share with me, even if it fits in
   the category of small talk.

   I guess the part that makes me feel uncomfortable (maybe not
   hate) is having to guess what I'm supposed to say next in a
   conversation and not knowing what that is, I suppose if that's
   what it means by small talk then yes smile emoticon
