No, I'm sorry to say... the wabbits continue to evade me. But I got within a couple of feet of a squirrel the other day and seriously considered taking it down, in front of the entire campus, lol.
ABSOLUTELY.
When I'm around people who are friendly acquaintances, who I'm not as comfortable with yet, I perpetually feel the need to fill the silence with empty chatter. I feel like silence means that I'm not doing a good enough job at interacting with them. But when I'm comfortable with silent moments with other people, that means that I understand them, and kind of know what they're thinking... or at least, I know that the silence doesn't mean that either of us is unsatisfied with how things between us are going at that moment.
