Not usually. I might go over something I want to say, if it were very important.

No, I just head right in.

Depends on who
it is to...if it is for a job, or an interview, then of course I will
rehearse what I am
going to say...otherwise, who cares?

I used to but I don't anymore

If it is something that needs to be explained or I am upset about and need to explain the situation or even sometimes when I am making up a story to get something done. But not general phone calls.
Stephanie,

No I do not.
You Me
I do that all the time. I hate using phones so I plan out everything that's going to be said.
Aly,

Only if I have to break some bad news.
Emily,

Harrisburg, PA USA
No, but I write
myself notes about points I have to cover if it's a business call or a
call for a service
person.
Cathie,

Novi, MI USA
I think I may have at some point in my life, but I've had no reason to do that in years... probably when I was working up the nerve to call a girl and ask her out.

No way. What fun would that be?
Keri-Jade,

Brampton, Ontario CANADA
No. I usually know the gist of what I'm going to say, or I wouldn't call. . .but I wouldn't say I ehearse it.
Karen,

Yes, when it's an important phone call.

Never in a million years!
Fisch,

For personal phone calls I rarely rehearse what I'm going to say. However there are some calls that I make for work that I not only rehearse but jot down some notes to help me.
Laura,

Once in a rare while.
Jane,

West Linn, OR USA
I have done it before when I am calling someone important or I am upset about something and am going to complain.
Tracy,
24
Ocean City, NJ USA
I never used to
but as I get older, I find that sometimes I forget just exactly what I
wanted to say
so yes, sometimes I rehearse what I'm going to say.
Jane,
63
West Linn, OR USA
In my head, maybe, and usually only when I'm calling to complain about something. I have to know what to say to keep my nerve and stand my ground.
Firelady,

Frisco, TX USA
Yes. If it is for business or something I really find difficult to do.
Janet,

no.
